Trillium

Sheraton Hamilton, built in 1985, is a 19-storey, 76 metres (249 ft), 299 room hotel in downtown Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.^[1] Situated on King Street West, East of Bay Street North, the hotel is part of the Lloyd D. Jackson Square complex.

The hotel has 1,200 square metres (13,000 sq. feet) of meeting space, and direct connections to FirstOntario Centre, the Hamilton Convention Centre/Ellen Fairclough Building and Lloyd D. Jackson Square.

In September 2008, the hotel underwent about $10 million in renovations, and changed ownership to local developer Darko Vranich and his Burlington-based company, Vrancor Group.^[2]

Peregrine Falcon Conservation at Sheraton Hamilton Hotel

In 2024, the Sheraton Hamilton Hotel became the nesting site for peregrine falcons, a species previously at risk. Early in the year, a pair of falcons named McKeever and Judson, who have been residents since early 2022, were observed with new eggs. The Hamilton Community Peregrine Project noted the arrival of the first egg in March, which set a record for the earliest sighting of a peregrine falcon egg at this location.^[3]

As of late April 2024, the falcons successfully hatched four chicks, contributing to the ongoing recovery of the peregrine falcon population. This event marks another successful year for the project, which has been monitoring and supporting falcon populations from the 18th-floor ledge of the hotel for nearly three decades.^[3]
