The new Holiday Inn Manhattan-Financial District is lighting up the Wall
Street neighborhood with a brilliant metal-paneled façade that attracts
and reflects light, brightening the street-level pedestrian landscape
around it. The new hotel also provides a new superlative for
Manhattan, as it is, at 50 stories, the tallest Holiday Inn in the world.
With tourism flourishing in Lower Manhattan, the well-appointed
budget hotel was designed to meet current market demands while
maximizing the floor and area ratio and the number of guest rooms.
To achieve the design intent, increase the size of the guest rooms
and maintain the project on budget, the façade composition was
redesigned from an original of concrete masonry units and masonry
to one featuring a much more slender exterior wall clad in Reynobond
ACM panels over an engineered dry-seal gasket system with metal
stud framing.
