The new hotel to be built by the Fed Ex forum will be a hilton hotel.  It received funding money today.

A new rendering of the building is due to be released later.

Well, that's good to hear. Hopefully, the new rendering of The Phoenix by Hilton (not an official name; I just made it up) will be just as promising as this one.

The MBJ article has a few other details in it as well, including:

- a planned Hyatt Summerfield Suites by the Memphis Bioworks Foundation (location yet to be determined)
- renovation of the Benchmark Hotel, possibly becoming a Clarion hotel (rendering found on the CCC website under Current Projects)

Glad to hear it. I'm there right now trying to finish up on my bachelor's in Engineering.
