Plan Exam Filed for New Hotel on Wythe

Just down the block from the Wythe Hotel, another hotel is going in at 55 Wythe Avenue, BuzzBuzzHome reported. It will have 183 rooms over 150,000 square feet, according to a plan exam filed earlier this month. The lot is currently home to a one-story warehouse.

The building will be 20 stories with retail on the ground floor, a bar and lounge, rooftop restaurant, and parking for 218 cars. It will also have office and community space. The developer is Zelig Weiss.

When we stopped by this industrial zoned area of Williamsburg over the weekend, we noticed “available” signs on many of the warehouse buildings nearby.

Further down Wythe between North 9th and 10th streets, another hotel (or hostel) is going in. Famous design duo Roman and Williams will do the interiors, as we’ve reported previously.  GMAP
