Topping off today at downtown hotel

Public officials and workers this morning will celebrate the "topping off’ of the new Hampton Inn & Suites in downtown Providence.

A steel beam will be raised to the top of the building marking the end of the steel construction phase and the beginning of the interior work in the hotel.

The site of the former St. Francis Chapel, and the original home of Old Colony Bank, the historic building is located at 58 Weybosset St. in the heart of the financial district. When completed in December, the Hampton Inn & Suites will offer 110 hotel rooms. The project is joint venture between First Bristol Corporation and Granoff Associates and was designed by Newport Collaborative Architects.
