This building is located at one of the most compelling locations in Manhattan - just outside the 9/11 Memorial site, at the corner of Greenwich and Thames Streets. Hidrock Properties commissioned Peter Poon Architects to design this 30- story building in 2011 with input from Danny Forster Studio.

The modern, innovative design with massing lifted above the street was created to float above the National September 11 Memorial. The hotel is wrapped with multi-facetted façade materials composed of curtainwall, metal screen and paneling.

Guests will be able to enjoy views of Lower Manhattan and Hudson River from a rooftop lounge. A bistro space and outdoor terrace hovers just above the memorial on the sixth floor with floor to ceiling windows.

Based on initial designs from Danny Forster and Kobi Karp, PPA generated the interiors with a theme/concept which is modern and inviting. The most notable of these spaces is the sixth floor with a large open space, wood paneled walls and sloped ceilings, and remarkable views of the World Trade Center and Memorial.
