COVINGTON — When North by Hotel Covington opens, guests will find a mix of new and old in the building that once housed the city's YMCA. The developers even kept part of the pool. Management and assorted Northern Kentucky leaders will cut the ribbon on the $26.5 million redevelopment on Tuesday. Finishing touches were still being added on Monday.

Hotel Covington, a project of the Salyers Group, opened next door on Madison Avenue in 2016.
