ASHWAUBENON, WI (WTAQ) - The final structural beam was put into place by construction crews on Wednesday, signaling a significant milestone for Lodge Kohler in the Titletown District.
"We appreciate our construction team’s tireless efforts and dedication to get us to this point as we drive toward a grand opening next July," said Christine Loose, Group Director Lodging for Kohler Co. "While we take time to celebrate the progress and placement of the last exterior beam, the real exciting news for our future patrons is that starting today, guests can book a room and reserve their place amongst the first to experience Lodge Kohler."
Crews will now work on installation of the exterior windows and interior construction of the 144-room hotel.
"It’s been a thrill to get a first look at the progress of Lodge Kohler and the Titletown District today," Wisconsin Tourism Secretary Stephanie Klett said. "This project will enhance the entire Green Bay experience, grow the local economy and give people more reasons to visit. We look forward to supporting this new development with our own promotional efforts."
In addition to opening room reservations, Kohler Co. also released the first design renderings of the interior of Lodge Kohler. The interior design team worked diligently to create a rugged-yet-refined atmosphere that is approachable to both guests from around the country, and the community.
“Guests will be embraced by a neutral color palette set against warm wood tones, bronze accents and painted finishes for a design inspired by Kohler's history of gracious living and craftsmanship,” said Tim Andreas, Director Architecture & Interior Design for Kohler Co.
Beginning Wednesday, guests are welcome to book room reservations for July-December 2017 online or by calling 888-4KOHLER (888-456-4537). Five different room categories are available with mid-week rates starting at $195 (plus tax) and Game Day rates starting at $463 (plus tax).
"This is a great addition to the tourism product here in Greater Green Bay," Brad Toll, president of the Greater Green Bay Convention and Visitors Bureau, told FOX 11. "Titletown, I think, is going to be a generator of more interest in the community."
