SAN JOSE -- Maritz Wolff and Company has
called upon Devcon Construction to build a new 253,000-square foot,
14-story tower hotel and conference center expansion to the existing
Fairmont Hotel. Devcon began site work in March 2000 and is aiming
to have the new tower ready for occupancy by February 2002.
When completed, an additional 264 rooms on 11 floors will be added
to the existing hotel including 33 suites. The 14-story, poured-in-place
concrete structure will contain retail shops on its ground floor
and a conference/meeting facility on its second floor. A 60-foot
bridge will connect the new tower to the original hotel at the meeting
level. The architects, Gensler Associates and Moore, Ruble, Yudell of
Santa Monica have worked together to provide a contemporary complement
to the traditional style of the original Fairmont Hotel. Wilson
Associates of Beverly Hills is providing the interior design services.

a regional office in Santa Cruz to manage projects along the coast.
