Case study: MODA supply box system delivers labor savings at Grand Hyatt hotel
Plumbing a high-rise hotel like the new Grand Hyatt Nashville — phase one of the 16-acre Nashville Yards development — is a project as challenging as it is massive. Meeting such a challenge inevitably requires a certain flexibility in both materials and approach.
Now in the latter stages of construction, the 784,000-square-foot Grand Hyatt features all the amenities you would expect in a first-class hotel: spa, swimming pool and fitness center; assorted banquet and meeting rooms; plus two ballrooms, a rooftop bar, a ground-level restaurant and three levels of underground parking. The bulk of its towering 27 stories are devoted to 591, well-appointed guest rooms, each with a shower, toilet and a double-bowl, his-and-her vanity.
