Manchester, NH The Hilton Garden Inn project received an "Excellence in Construction" award from ABC (Associated Builders and Contractors) at a ceremony in Concord, N.H. on October 25th. TFMoran Inc. civil engineers were responsible for master planning and design of the hotel's site plan. TFM worked alongside BMA Architectural Group of Amherst, NH, ROK Builders, and hotel developers Roedel Companies, LLC, of Wilton, NH.

The upscale, six-story, 127-room Hilton Garden Inn is located in the south end of the historic Amoskeag Millyard along the Merrimack River. The hotel is a success story of public-private partnership overcoming the challenges of building in the heart of a former mill city's industrial district.

The architecture was designed as a fusion between old and new, using brick, glass and wrought iron accents. One of the major attractions of building next to the Merchantsauto.com stadium was the opportunity to create a "front row seat" experience for hotel guests on the hotel patio and in their rooms watching the NH Fisher Cats play.

The hotel has been recognized by the City of Manchester, Hilton Corporation, the Manchester Historic Association, and by the community at large as a great addition to Manchester's hospitality industry. The hotel opened in the spring of 2006.
