Asher Adams Hotel
The historic Union Pacific Depot underwent a comprehensive renovation in conjunction with the construction of a new adjacent luxury hotel inspired by the former train station. Paying homage to Asher and Adams, pioneering cartographers among the first to include railroad routes on maps, the hotel preserves exterior of the iconic Grand Train Hall while repurposing its south wing into a restaurant.
Floors two to eight of the structure house most of the 225 guest rooms and 26 suites. The ground floor accommodates meeting spaces, a junior ballroom, and a fitness center. The innovative c-type curvature of the new structure allows for an open courtyard separating the new building from the historic depot while fostering a cohesive link between the old and new. A unique seven-story bridge provides for the continuation of guest rooms on levels two through eight while opening the courtyard to the Olympic Fountain Plaza and The Gateway.
