New boutique hotel Downtown on Broad Street will be named "Indigo Hotel"

clipped from www.dispatch.com The newest boutique hotel Downtown will be built by rehabilitating and combining two historic buildings and using a $4.6 million state historic tax credit. The Hotel Indigo will utilize buildings at 16 and 20 E. Broad Street, immediately next to the Rhodes State Office Tower. The 117-room Indigo Hotel will cost an estimated $26.6 million, according to the state tax credit records. It will be developed by Schottenstein Property Group. The Ohio Historic Preservation Tax Credit will pay for rehabilitation of the Hayden Building. The building will be converted into an upscale boutique hotel. The old Hayden Building at 20 E. Broad St., a four-story Italianate-style office structure named after industrial entrepreneur Peter Hayden, is the oldest commercial building Downtown, dating to 1869. It was designed by Nathan B. Kelley of Columbus, a Statehouse architect.
