I don’t know if it has an opening date, but Wyndham is putting the finishing touches on a Tryp hotel in the old Washington Education Building on 40th and Butler. That’ll be the first hotel in the neighborhood.Lawrenceville is a good choice for going out too. More of a crowd than downtown but with less amateur drunks and tough guys than South Side. But if you stay there, an Airbnb is probably the way to go. There aren't any hotels in Lawrenceville proper.
