HOTEL ROANOKE


W-ZHA represented the Virginia Tech Real Estate Foundation in selecting a developer who would renovate and operate the 415-room Hotel Roanoke, in Roanoke, Virginia, which was gifted to the University by the Norfolk Southern Corporation in 1989. On behalf of the Foundation, W-ZHA issued a developer solicitation, which resulted in the selection in early 1992 of Faison as the designated developer. W-ZHA, working with both the Foundation and the City of Roanoke, was responsible for negotiating a developer agreement that addressed the renovation and operation of the hotel and the construction of a municipal conference center on an adjacent property.
