Maine Course Hospitality Group purchased the dual-branded Homewood Suites & Tru by Hilton Albany Crossgates Mall in New York’s capital city from Pyramid Management Group. The sales price was not disclosed.
The 192-key hotel includes 96 traditional guest rooms and 96 suites with fully equipped kitchens, designed for guests planning on an extended stay. A JLL Hotels & Hospitality team led by Alan Suzuki and Matthew Enright represented the seller.

About three hours south, Tesla is taking space in Westbury, grabbing 50,000 square feet at Mattone Investors’ Roosevelt Raceway Center at 1350 Corporate Drive, according to Long Island Business News. The space was formerly occupied by a Toys ‘R’ Us, but has been vacant for four years.
The shop will be the fourth for Elon Musk’s company on Long Island. The space will serve as both a car showroom and service center, where solar panels and home-energy storage equipment will always be sold. The facility is expected to open by the end of the year.
