“We will provide input throughout the construction process
to help maintain schedules and optimize efficiency, initiate a comprehensive
marketing outreach program and bring on experienced staff to ramp the hotel
quickly in order to open the property smoothly with a solid book of business.
“Manhattan is a one-of-a-kind market with numerous
idiosyncrasies and demand generators,” he noted.
“The city has seen a significant amount of new construction
in this segment in the past few years which requires creative marketing and
operating strategies to succeed.
“ Implementation of our proprietary systems, calling on our
in-depth experience in the market and taking advantage of our economies of
scale will give this hotel a competitive advantage in all phases of the hotel
cycle.”
The Hotel Indigo Manhattan Financial District is centrally
located on Maiden Lane between Nassau Street and Broadway, one block from the
new One World Trade Center.

the theme of time to honor the area’s legendary history of being a craftsman
center for fine jewelry and watch-making.
The hotel will offer 1,450 square feet of meeting space, a
fitness center and a rooftop lounge.
Guests and locals will enjoy a great neighborhood bar with seasonally
and local sourced food.

immediate classic in one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in Manhattan,”
