From the meeting
The packet also included a neighborhood workshop and planning materials for the Gainesville Innovation Square Hotel major site plan. The project called for two buildings, including an 11-story hotel with a ground-floor restaurant and a 12-story hotel with a parking garage and ground-level retail. The materials show the project was being shaped before formal application review, with a first step meeting on February 2, 2026 and construction shown for October 2026 in the estimate.
That makes the lead useful for firms tied to design, traffic, parking, and permit support.
