Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Set in an adaptive reuse of a 1920s historically registered bank building, designers removed some of the brass and glass that was dividing the 7,000-square-foot lobby in the Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown, allowing them to create the social zones that the brand requires.

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego The Courtyard’s custom elements, some shown here in the Billiards room, reference building’s history. “The ownership group agreed with us that we couldn’t stick with typical Courtyard finishes without there being a disconnect,” Zangerle says.
