Beacon Investment Management Group, a Charlotte-based hospitality developer and owner, will build a proposed Hyatt Centric hotel at the Apex SouthPark site, at the corner of Morrison Boulevard and Sharon Road.

The redevelopment of that site, the former Sharon United Methodist Church, is being led by Charlotte-based Childress Klein and Ascentris, a real estate private equity firm based in Denver.

“(Hyatt Centric) is a unique product that we think fits really well into SouthPark because it (will be) so localized,” said Nish Patel, president of Beacon IMG. “The interior design, food offerings ... we think it’ll fit really well in SouthPark.”
