FORT WORTH, Texas
A new 175-room hotel could take corporate team building to a new level with an indoor racetrack, conference rooms and a ballroom, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
"We felt like Southlake was the perfect spot, being equidistant from DFW Airport and Texas Motor Speedway," said Jeff Medici, principal of C.H.O.C., which is developing the project. It was not clear what brand's name would be atop the hotel.
"I think the time has come for another hotel in Southlake."
At a recent neighborhood meeting, Medici said he envisions Fortune 500 companies using the 90,370-square-foot hotel for staff conferences and other meetings, in addition to the indoor racetrack. There also will be a ballroom that could seat 450 people.
