Brent Reid, Winter Construction’s CEO, said, “We have really enjoyed building in Midtown Atlanta, which is such an innovative and culturally important place in our City. We are thrilled to continue building here with such an exciting new hotel.” Winter is currently moving toward completion of a high-rise apartment building two blocks east of the AC Hotel/Moxy Hotel project site.
Carlos Asensio, of Noble Investment, said the new AC Hotel/Moxy Hotel will add personality to the Midtown neighborhood. “We look forward to working with Winter on this project.
