Carnegie Hotel (New York City, New York)

USA / New Jersey / West New York / New York City, New York / West 56th Street, 160
173-foot, 19-story futurist hotel completed in 2016. Designed by Rawlings Architects and Axis Design Group, its narrow facade bows out slightly as it rises, and then slopes back more sharply near the top. The front facade has two bays of dark-tinted glass, divided by a thin, central, vertical metal strip. The ends are clad in grey -painted concrete panels, set slightly back from the glass center.

The side elevations are also grey-painted concrete paneling, with a pattern of small, thin, horizontal projections following the curve of the facade. The site was previously occupied by a 2-story carriage house from 1879 that later housed a popular music store, the Joseph Patelson Music House. The hotel contains 67 guest rooms.
