NEW YORK
Riverside Developers announced the topping out of The William Vale, one of Brooklyn’s most highly anticipated hotel projects rising in the dynamic Williamsburg neighborhood. The hotel is expected to open in early 2016.
The project, located at 55 Wythe Ave., between 12th and 13th Streets, will bring 183 rooms to market and stand 21 stories to offer unparalleled views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan skylines.
“The topping out milestone at The William Vale not only marks an important time for our construction, development and design teams, it also marks a significant milestone for Brooklyn tourism and hospitality,” said Sébastien Maingourd, general manager of The William Vale Hotel. “Just this year, more than 11,000 new hotel rooms will be available, and we anticipate the number of tourists traveling to Brooklyn to only steadily increase. At The William Vale, we’re meeting this insatiable demand with a product we believe properly represents the next wave in Brooklyn, and the borough’s continued progression to an affluent and refined style.”
From architecture firm Albo Liberis LLC, the project’s striking exterior continues to spark conversation among the community and set the standard for innovative hotel design in the borough.
With interiors led by design firm Munge Leunge, guests will enjoy spacious and light-filled rooms that evoke the essence of the neighborhood while embracing Brooklyn's movement toward a sleek and modern aesthetic. Expansive room layouts range from one-bedrooms to penthouse suites, each offering personal balconies.
The hotel will also offer an impressive amenities package including a 60-foot, outdoor lap pool (the longest hotel pool in New York City), ample meeting and conference space for up to 250 attendees, state-of-the-art fitness center, a farm-to-table restaurant concept and spots for great shopping.
In addition, The William Vale will bring more than 20,000-square-feet of elevated green space—the first of its kind in Brooklyn—that serves as an outdoor oasis for guests and locals alike.
