Local developers that want to build a Hampton Inn on Airport Authority Land still need to formally apply to Hilton International. Company spokesperson Tom Lorenzo says the project is looking good, and Thunder Bay has always been a market they've wanted to target. He feels the local developers could get approval from Hilton in three weeks and have a target construction date of Spring. Lorenzo says the project not only needs Hilton approval but needs to be approved by the City and the Airport Authority as well.
