    It's no surprise that the Orlando projects -- a new Hyatt, a new Hilton and an additional 1,000 rooms at the Peabody Orlando -- are on hold, said David Borge, vice president in the Orlando office of L.J. Melody & Co., the mortgage-banking arm of real estate services company CB Richard Ellis. Orlando hotelier Harris Rosen, who owns business hotels on International Drive near the existing convention center, also has purchased land near the expansion site for a possible hotel. Rosen, who usually pays cash for his hotels, didn't return calls. Locally, work is continuing on about a dozen hotels, from a 108- room Hampton Inn on International Drive to the 584-room Ritz Carlton and 1,000-room J.W. Marriott hotels on John Young Parkway near the Central Florida Parkway in south Orange County. Each of those projects is expected to open by summer.
