The hotelier who opened the Thompson LES Hotel, Jason Pomeranc, was quoted during the week before the opening as saying this of the day his hotel opens: "going to be a moment in time that will be remembered as kind of when the Lower East Side came of age."
Tell that to the folks at the Mercury Lounge, Katz' Deli and WD50, all of whom might beg to differ!
The Thompson LES Hotel missed its July 15, 2008 deadline to open on Allen Street on the Lower East Side. Around the corner from Stanton Street, the hotel promised a rooftop pool with an Andy Warhol mural in mosaic on the pool floor. Andy would have been so proud. Will we finally get to see Moby in swim trunks hanging out here on the roof? |
