IRON MOUNTAIN -- The new TownePlace Suites by Marriott has joined the Dickinson Area Chamber of Commerce, which celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony earlier this month.

The TownePlace Suites project is the culmination of a four-year collaborative effort between Dave and Stephanie Brule and the Veridea Group of Marquette. It replaced a blighted property with a modern hotel that will contribute significantly toward the redevelopment of downtown Iron Mountain.

This $20-million investment features 95 suite-style rooms, meeting space, public lounges and more, the company said.

In addition to the numerous construction jobs it provided, TownePlace Suites has created 25 permanent jobs in the community.

TownePlace Suites is at 200 S. Stephenson Ave. in Iron Mountain. The hotel can be reached by calling 906-448-2900 or going online to www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/imtts-towneplace-suites-iron-mountain/overview/.
