/PRNewswire/ -- Simon®, a global leader in premier

announced construction has commenced on a new Residence
Inn® by Marriott® at Northgate Station.
The first hotel at Northgate Station is the latest transformation
in this world-class, mixed-use development in the heart of the
Northgate Station and will be an important amenity for the
community.
"As the first hotel in the Northgate Station complex, this
Residence Inn will provide our guests with walking-distance access
to the newly opened Northgate Sound Transit station, the recently
opened Kraken Community Iceplex and the Northgate Station shopping
center," said Robert Sanger, Area Vice President, Lodging
Development of Marriott International. "Simon's investment has been
instrumental to our expansion in commercial developments, and
together, we're strengthening the community with jobs, offering a
unique visitor experience and empowering our guests to make the
most of each day, on their own terms and without constraints."
The 167-room Residence Inn joins the newly upgraded Northgate
Sound Transit light rail bus station and Kraken Community Iceplex,
the official training facility for the Seattle Kraken NHL team and
regional hub for ice sports in the Pacific Northwest. The
multi-stage development will continue this year, including a new
recreational area scheduled to open this summer. Guests will be
able to enjoy Northgate Station's shops, restaurants, and communal
gathering areas throughout the construction process.
"We're excited to work with Marriott to bring the Residence Inn
brand as the next phase of the transformational development. Once
complete in 2025, the new hotel will be an amenity to the
community, Kraken Community Iceplex, and Northgate Station." said
