| “We believe in the transformation of Downtown Crossing,” Oxford Capital Group CEO John Rutledge told us in a recent interview. Indeed, Oxford plans to convert 59 Temple Place into a 240-room boutique hotel. The Boston project is still in its early days for this Chicago-based company, which is developing the Langham Chicago Hotel at the former IBM Building and hit a homerun with its ’09 opening of the 225-room Hotel Felix at 127 W Huron in the Windy City. But it will be in good company here: Several major developments are under way in the historic Boston neighborhood, including a 600-foot tall multifamily/retail tower at the former Filene’s site, a luxury condo building, and three more multifamily projects within a few blocks. |
