The James New York is slated for a Sept. 1 opening.
The newly built hotel, located at 27 Grand Street on the corner of Grand and Thompson streets, features 114 rooms and suites.
Highlights include an S-curve glass Sky Lobby featuring textiles and unique lighting; a tri-level urban garden (with a 100-seat garden bar and restaurant food and beverage programming beginning in spring 2011); a rooftop pool deck and bar with 360-degree views of the Manhattan skyline; and many other amenities.
Also, the hotel’s art curator, Matt Jensen, located emerging artistic talent to participate in The James Corridor Arts program. The art collection is featured in a number of spaces at the hotel.
