Perfect location.

I agree. 48th west of 5th has been improving over the years. This will make it even better.

Extell makes its Diamond District hotel official
Developer filed plans for 534-room hotel on West 48th Street





November 23, 2020

Hotels have faced their fair share of trouble during the pandemic, with some defaulting on their loans and others shutting down for good. But Extell Development is pressing on with its plans for a huge Midtown hotel regardless.

The development firm has filed a permit application with the city’s Department of Buildings for a 168,897-square-foot hotel at 32 West 48th Street in the Diamond District.

Extell has been working on the hotel project for several years now, and closed on the four-story former home of the Plaza Arcade diamond mini-mall in 2018 for $40 million. The company also snapped up the air rights for several adjacent properties, with the goal of building a huge hotel that would connect West 47th and 48th Streets.

According to the plans on file with DOB, the hotel will stand 33 stories, or 456 feet. Retail space will be available in the cellar and ground floor of the new building, along with a lobby and a fitness center. Rooms will start on the fourth floor through the 30th floor. SLCE Architects is listed as the architect of record.

When I worked in Rockefeller Center I used to go for the best falafel in the city on the 48th Street side of the Plaza Arcade shown in the photo above. I am guessing the dining experience in the new Extell Hotel will be considerably more upscale.

Does anyone know who will operate the hotel?

Permits have been filed for a 31-story hotel high rise at 32 West 48 Street in Midtown‘s Diamond District.

Extell is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 456-foot-tall development will yield 213,158 square feet, with 168,897 square feet designated for commercial space. The building will have 534 hotel rooms, with an average unit scope of 316 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar and sub-cellar.
