Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment officials are excited with the progress at the site, said Anne Graffice, executive vice president of public relations. “It is a great indication of the continued progress of our Village project for our community and a sign of much more to come.”
The second phase includes remodeling the DoubleTree by Hilton hotel in downtown Canton and work on a plaza at the stadium's east end. The hotel opened in November while work at the stadium is ongoing.
Construction of a retail promenade and a 180-room hotel are planned to start later this year on property north of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. A football-themed water park and other buildings also are part of the second phase. Plans call for phase two to be completed by the end of 2023.
