3D Development Partners With Midas Hospitality to Develop Element Hotel in Richardson, Texas
3D Development—a real estate development company with offices in Georgia, Tennessee and Texas—is poised to begin the transformation of 5.2 acres into a mixed-use project.
The new Richardson, Texas development will include a $22 million Element by Westin hotel located at 2205 North Glenville Ave. The hotel, which will be developed and managed by Midas Hospitality, is scheduled to open in the summer of 2021.
The four-story hotel offers 123 spacious suites that include full-equipped kitchens and spa-inspired bathrooms. The Element concept encourages renewal through a nature-influenced environment and is constructed with an efficient use of space and sustainability in mind. Highlights include a Motion Fitness Center, an all-natural saline pool, and a Bikes to Borrow program for its guests.
MW Builders, which has offices in Kansas and Texas, is the general contractor. This is the second Element hotel brand that Midas Hospitality is developing and managing.
