Alexis Park (Harmon Corridor)
POSSIBLE DEAD PROJECT

The Alexis Park Hotel is an older, middle-class, two-story hotel on Harmon Rd.  Harmon is becoming the new, hip, hot spot, so the folks at Alexis Park have announced a $400-million redevelopment of the property  which will feature a 28-story hotel tower with 1,000 rooms, 60,000 square-feet of casino space, dining, shopping, entertainment, spa, and meeting facilities.

In addition, the existing 500 rooms (in two-story buildings) will be renovated. 350 will be turned into exclusive villas for the property and the remaining 150 will be sold as timeshares.  Alexis Park purchased an apartment complex to the west of their property for the new hotel tower and casino. They also purchased a defunct mobile-home park behind their property to accommodate the parking garage.
