Doubt this will be a hotel; will likely be residential or mixed-use.
A mixed use hotel-residential tower is likely, with the affordable housing component thrown in. Probably something in the 800 to 900 ft range. Being across the street from Javits makes a strong case for hotel, but Cuomo wants some type of affordable housing on this site, and also the block just south of the Javits.
