Final beam placed for Flamingo Crossings hotels at Disney
A "topping off" ceremony took place Thursday as the final structural steel beam was placed for the first two hotels in the Flamingo Crossings development at Walt Disney World's western edge.
SpringHill Suites by Marriott and TownePlace Suites by Marriott will open in February. The hotels will create 130 jobs between them, a spokeswoman said.
SpringHill Suites will have 248 rooms. The extended-stay TownePlace Suites by Marriott will have 250.
Flamingo Crossings, about half a mile from Walt Disney World's western entrance, is aimed at budget tourists and teams participating in events at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.
