Vertu Hospitality has released preliminary renderings of Umbrella Hotel, a new development under construction in an industrial corner of the South Bronx. Located near the Harlem River at 164 Canal Street West in Mott Haven, the five story building will measure just under 31,000 square feet.
Designed by Michael Kang Architect, the hotel will occupy 18,136 square feet to be divided among 73 short-stay guestrooms. The structure will also include a 7,500 square foot community facility that is expected to comprise an ambulatory diagnostic center on the second and third floors.
No completion date has been confirmed yet.

Seems like it should be 3 times as tall for this location.
Agreed, there are several highrises going up opposite the highway and the typical apartment building in the Bronx today under construction is over 6 stories, often between 8 and 15.
