“This signing speaks to the strong demand we are experiencing for luxury hospitality and branded residences.”
To soar over 500 feet high, the tower will provide hotel guests and residents extraordinary views of the Empire State Building and downtown Manhattan as well as direct access to a historic neighbourhood recognised for its architecture, central location and dynamic culinary scene.
“The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad, is set to become the epicentre of one of New York City’s most exciting neighbourhoods and we are thrilled to be collaborating with Marriott International on this iconic project,” said Dayssi Olarte de Kanavos, president of Flag Luxury Group.

The tower will include 250 hotel rooms and 16 branded residences that will feature the Ritz-Carlton’s service, luxurious amenities and visionary interior design.
With construction already underway, the hotel and residences are expected to open in 2021.
