The closure was announced by the iconic hotel’s general manager in an email to local government official on Dec 18

The closure will cause at least 431 employees to lose their jobs after they were initially furloughed in March, according to a notice filed with the state of New York. Television footage show the front doors of the hotel boarded up.
Hotel management first announced in October that the Roosevelt would close before the end of the year, “due to the current, unprecedented environment and the continued uncertain impact from COVID-19.”
The Times Square Hilton and Omni Berkshire Place are among the other big-name hotels in New York City to close their doors for good due to economic fallout from the crisis.

After nearly a century in business, the Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown closed its doors permanently on Friday due to a severe loss of revenue caused by the coronavirus.
Hotel general manager Marc Sternagel announced the closure in an email sent to a local government official Friday morning, which was obtained by Patch.
"Please be advised that due to the current Pandemic, The Roosevelt Hotel New York at 45 East 45th Street [...] will permanently close effective today," Sternagel wrote.
