San Marco Hotel Inc., led by Patel, paid about $7.43 million for five parcels to assemble the 1.73-acre site, according to the St. Johns County property appraiser. 

The five parcels contain the St. Augustine Information Center, the Best Western Spanish Quarter Inn, Barnacle Bill’s restaurant and a gravel parking lot. Patel said those structures will be demolished, according to the Financial News and Daily Record.
