Eau Gallie public-private parking garage pursued for nine-story Unscripted hotel project
Melbourne officials will pursue funding and construction of a five-story public-private parking garage next to the Eau Gallie Civic Center as part of an ambitious nine-story luxury hotel project.
Northboro Builders, which is under contract to buy the Foosaner Art Museum, wants to replace that building with a 180-room hotel featuring a rooftop restaurant, pool and bar, along with 7,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space.
The brand: Unscripted, a boutique urban brand offered by Dream Hotel Group of New York, said Larry Jarnes, Northboro Builders president and CEO.
“We now have seven or eight restaurants and bars right in downtown Eau Gallie, with more coming. We’re 2.5 miles from the airport. This’ll be a facility that people will literally come and vacation to, and make Eau Gallie a destination, for both business and pleasure," Jarnes told the Melbourne City Council on Tuesday.
