> **[Jeff Sutton Will Build Midtown Hotel Near Fifth Avenue](https://therealdeal.com/2021/05/04/jeff-sutton-will-replace-midtown-retail-space-with-hotel/)** > > Wharton Properties filed a permit on April 29 to build a 26-story, 176,375-square-foot hotel at 25 West 34th Street. Sadly, this vile, disgusting eyesore across the street still remains. It’s an embarrassment. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/4/7/479cd51365c5dedf90bc4f2f5d5f88ff9b9692d0.jpeg) ---

Admittedly its pretty ugly in its current state but it was cool in a modernist way when new: ![Spears - (nypl id](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/e/1/e1fb544aaa8a620fd233d40a6d507c4cd1aceeb1.jpeg) Photo: NYPL digital collection ---

Good news. Hopefully we get a second hotel, across the street, on that crappy lot. This neighborhood is (in normal times) insane with tourists, so hotels make sense here. ---
