Clark and Grand Hotel
This 19-story hotel combines three hotel operators—Aloft, Fairfield Inn by Marriott, and Hyatt Place—under the same roof. MKA joined the team well into design development to improve a design by another engineer which was 25 percent over budget. ![Clark and Grand Hotel](https://www.mka.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/95931_00_N4_indesign-jpg.webp)
