430 South Ave.
Buxton Kubik Dodd Design Collective is the architect and mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineer for the 52,000-square-foot Moxy hotel. A downtown Springfield building completed in 1930 is being renovated for the project. Design officials say the structure features ornamental stonework on the exterior and in the interior has remaining travertine tiled walls and limestone flooring. The hotel includes a rooftop terrace for dining, while the basement houses a bar and event space known as Subterranean. Part of the Marriott International Inc. brand, the boutique hotel features 94 rooms across the eight-story building, according to past reporting. Tim O’Reilly purchased the building through South Street Partners LLC. O’Reilly Build LLC is the general contractor, with additional engineering work by Anderson Engineering Inc., civil, and J&M Engineering LLC, structural. The project is slated for completion by August 2023.
