Fortuna Realty Group has filed applications for a 27-story, 299-key hotel at 30 West 39th Street, in Midtown South. The project will encompass 133,523 square feet and rise 323 feet to its roof. A restaurant and an outdoor bar will be located on the ground and second floors, followed by hotel rooms across the fourth through 26th floors. Nobutaka Ashihara’s Financial District-based firm is the architect of record. The 8,662-square-foot assemblage, at 24-30 West 39th Street, is occupied by four four-story commercial buildings. Demolition permits were filed last year.
Really glad this isn’t the gaudy Vegas gold depicted in the original renders. Still cheap looking but better than most of the new roach hotels. I doubt any of these cheap budget hotels will even be standing in 50 years. I’m sure they’re constructed very poorly.
