Historical NoteReturn to Top
Planning for a conference hotel at Oregon State University began in the mid-1990s; a request for proposals was issued in early 1997. In June 1998, the Oregon State Board of Higher Education approved lease of 3.67 acres of campus property near the LaSells Stewart Conference Center and OSU athletic facilities to a development corporation for construction of a $10 million hotel. Ultimately, another development company began construction in the summer of 2002 and the Hilton Garden Inn opened in the fall of 2003.

One of the videotapes is of a pre-proposal information exchange held for potential developers at the Valley Football Center in the spring of 1997; it includes background information and the context and need for the hotel. Presenters include Sylvia Moore, OSU Conference Services; Don Wirth, OSU Alumni Association; Mike Corwin, Athletics; and representatives of the Corvallis tourism and visitors bureau and economic development organization. The second videotape, Proposed Hotel Presentation, is a developer's presentation on July 29, 1997 of a proposal for construction of the hotel. It is 1 hour and 45 minutes long.
