YONKERS – Ground was ceremonially broken Tuesday for a 150-room Hilton Hampton Inn at 555 Tuckahoe Road in the City of Yonkers. The hotel is expected to be open for business by late summer.
Hotel should be up and running in about six months
The 188,000 square foot facility will include a pool, fitness center and “comfortable lobby environment.”
An estimated 50 permanent jobs as well as close to 200 construction jobs will be created.
“We are excited to be part of the economic renaissance under the leadership of Mayor Spano,” said Al Weissman, of Alfred Weissman Real Estate.
The city’s Industrial Development Agency approved assistance to facilitate the project last May.
