The hotel is one of many redevelopment projects planned for the future of Clay Terrace.

Washington Prime Group, the company that owns Clay Terrace, presented redevelopment plans for the outdoor mall to the city of Carmel in 2020. The Carmel City Council approved an ordinance in December 2020 to allow for redevelopment of the property, which would include apartments, retail and restaurants.

Washington Prime Group filed for bankruptcy in 2021 but a city spokesperson at the time said operations at Clay Terrace in Carmel should not be impacted.
