Two big hotels planned for Kenmore Square
Kenmore Square could soon get a lot taller.
Developers filed initial plans Tuesday to build two large hotels on either side of Beacon Street on the western side of Kenmore, creating a new gateway to the busy square with what would be its tallest buildings.
Under the plan, the owners of the Hotel Buckminster would build a 19-story, 388-room hotel on the site of a parking garage and a smaller building they own at 655 Beacon St., while Wellesley-based Mark Development would put a 24-story, 375-room hotel across the street, where a Citizens Bank now stands.
