Radio Tower & Hotel
New York, NY, United States
Located at the entrance of Manhattan between the Hudson and Harlem River, the Radio Tower and Hotel is a whimsical and colorful new building bringing electric energy to the Washington Heights community. The inspiration for the building’s multicolored blocks in shades of green, yellow, blue, orange, and magenta—is the diverse and vibrant community. The 23-story property combines a 221-room-hotel, ground-floor retail, and office spaces in playful masonry boxes with punched windows, reflecting the existing character of Washington Heights. Leading New York-based architecture and interior design firm, Stonehill Taylor served as the architect of record while working alongside the design architect, MVRDV.
Rising from 180th Street toward 181st, the rooftop offers sweeping, 360-degree views of lower Manhattan and Queens while providing a landmark gateway at the George Washington Bridge connection to the Bronx. Even though the neighborhood is the fifth largest in New York City, Radio Hotel is the first-ever full-service hotel to open in the area. Radio Tower and Hotel will serve as an important hub for conferences hosted by the nearby Yeshiva University and the New York Presbyterian Hospital. The property is designed to stand out and serve as a welcoming beacon for out-of-towners coming into Manhattan.
The building is set back from Amsterdam Avenue to provide a landscaped hotel arrival which flows into an 8,000 square foot courtyard. Featuring a coffee bar, garden and wooden benches, the courtyard is the perfect spot for guests to relax and unwind while enjoying the outdoor scenery. An event space on the 12th floor is equipped with an outdoor terrace, a bar and lounge seating, allowing for community interaction. This space is suitable for intimate gatherings, weddings, reunions, quineñeras, bar mitzvahs, and any other events, with the adjacent rooftop boasting unobstructed views of the city. An efficiently designed 25,000 square foot sub-cellar provides for 170 parking spaces on stackers.
The building’s blocks are the same size as the surrounding properties, creating a vertical village without the overwhelming effect that many larger developments have. The Washington Heights neighborhood stands out with its vibrancy, diversity, and atmosphere, all of which is reflected in the Radio Tower and Hotel designs.
