Eight years after construction of a hotel near Chandler Fashion Center halted abruptly, a proposal to replace the six-story concrete eyesore has been submitted.
Like the failed Elevation Chandler project, the new proposal includes a hotel. It also calls for high-density housing, retail and office space on the lot northwest of the Loop 101/Loop 202 interchange.
If this project, Chandler Viridian, is approved, demolition of the abandoned shell and new construction could begin in 2015.
