West Valley announces plans, name for city center project

West Valley City officials broke ground and unveiled the name for the $500 million, transit-oriented development project designed to become the future focal point of West Valley City--Fairbourne Station. The development will bring to West Valley City its first full-service, four-star hotel. Construction of a seven-story $27-million Hilton Embassy Suites — featuring 162 suites — is scheduled to begin in July, with completion expected in late 2012. The project also calls for roughly 1,000 residential units, all of which will be high-end urban housing, along with 200,000 square feet of retail and 200,000 square feet of office space. Deseret News
