Developers of the Hyatt Centric Hotel just outside Bridgetown are getting closer to breaking ground for the multimillion-dollar high-rise project.

Earlier this week, in a clear indication that the start of construction could be around the corner, businesswoman Ram Mirchandani placed a newspaper advertisement confirming Government had compulsorily acquired her Liquidation Centre property along Bay Street. That property was considered the final hindrance in Government’s ability to own every parcel of land associated with the Hyatt project.

Not much had been released in recent months about the controversial project, but one of the developers, Mark Maloney, disclosed that plans were moving smoothly for a possible start-up early next year.

If the work does proceed in the first quarter of 2020, that would be slightly ahead of last year’s projections. (BA)
