Downtown Augusta hotel still on drawing board
After more than four years, Augusta still awaits its first glimpse of a proposed fifth downtown hotel.
At last report, Florence, S.C.-based Naman Hotels is preparing renderings to present before the Augusta Historic Preservation Commission for design approval, said Augusta Downtown Development Authority Executive Director Margaret Woodard.
There is no date scheduled yet for the presentation, Woodard said Wednesday.
Doing business as Naman Augusta LLC, the hospitality company bought about 1.6 acres of property at 1140 Broad St. in October 2016. Now one parcel, it used to be five parcels held by several different owners who had to agree to sell. The parcels sold collectively for just over $3 million.
What will Augusta s office space look like with fewer people going to the office?
A panel of local business leaders will discuss the future of the workplace under a remote workforce that exploded during the COVID pandemic. Rewinding the Workforce is the first event in the Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce s Member Economic Series.
Dr. Dustin Avent-Holt, an associate professor of sociology at Augusta University, told The Augusta Chronicle earlier this year that the rise in working from home stemmed from an institutional drive to innovate.
“Any firm, any organization, has a set of routines. They just implement those routines until something makes it hard to do that,” Avent-Holt said. “When something becomes hard to do, you innovate a new way to do that, and some of those innovations will probably stick. Once you realize the degree to which you can have certain kinds of employees work at home, some employees might like that and try to continue that.”
