No Rail Service During Savoy Hotel Demolition

A section of the old Savoy Hotel is scheduled to be demolished between 6 p.m. Friday and 11 p.m. Sunday, Oct 4.

The historic, seven-story hotel, now an eyesore with visible cracks on one façade, is located at 1616 Main St. between Pease and Leeland.

During the demolition, rail service will be stopped between the UH Downtown Station and the Downtown Transit Center northbound platform.

Trains traveling in and out of downtown will run from the DTTC southbound platform. If you are traveling northbound into downtown, take the train at the DTTC southbound platform.

We'll also operate Rail Shuttles - buses which will run every 15 minutes if you are traveling between DTTC and UH-Downtown stations.

Regular rail service will operate between the Fannin South Station and the DTTC southbound platform.

Normal rail service is scheduled to resume on Monday at 4 a.m.
