I was surprised to see a new Radisson on 36th & 64th. It is kind of hidden by the ATB building so I didn't even know there was a new hotel going there. It looks like it won't be long until it is open - all the signage is in place.
36th Street is closed right now, yes. They are twinning the section between Airport Trail and Country Hills Blvd, as well as creating the connection into the tunnel. The original schedule was to have it opened about a month from now.

For that Radisson, yeah, you pretty much have to drive by it to see it. It's only 3 stories tall because its so close to the runway flight path. Right now, it's sort of in a weird spot until some of the rest of the industrial space around it redevelops. Particularly, the auto wrecker immediately north of the hotel.
