Considering this is right by the marina and just across the Lift Bridge from Canal Park, it should be a slam dunk.

Alas, Duluth will no doubt put up a fight.

They'd prefer suburban plug-and-play hotels like the Comfort Suites and Hampton Inn that have already been built on Park Point?

Park Point residents would prefer nothing, actually. Anything that increases any traffic drives them bonkers.

It's the island culture; if they could they would secede from the city. A principal concern for locals is that they believe it would put a strain on the environment and infrastructure.

Personally, I think it would be a vast improvement over the suburban-style hotels on Canal Park.
