Construction is now complete on the Pendry Manhattan West Hotel, a 281-foot-tall mixed-use structure at Four Manhattan West in Midtown West. Designed by Skidmore Owings & Merrill and developed by Brookfield Properties, the 21-story project makes up one of five separate buildings in the Manhattan West master plan, which sits directly across Tenth Avenue from Hudson Yards. The property is located along West 33rd Street between Ninth and Tenth Avenues, wedged between One Manhattan West and Five Manhattan West, and will yield 164 guest rooms as well as condominiums on the upper levels.

All façade work is complete, with activity now focused on the sidewalks around the northern entrance and the curved, inclined walkways on the western side of the building that lead to the Manhattan West complex’s central plaza. The orange and white sidewalk barriers and metal fencing should be removed soon. The exterior hoist has been completely dismantled since our last update in June, and the upper extension atop the roof parapet looks to be completed as well. This part of the structure was still underway during the summer and fall and now appears to be enclosed in an envelope of lightly corrugated white metal paneling. Surrounding this is a perimeter of metal railings around the edges of the building.

The property is conveniently accessible via the 7 train at the nearby 34th Street-Hudson Yards station, as well as the A, C, E, New Jersey Transit, Long Island Railroad, and Amtrak trains to the east at Pennsylvania Station. Across the street is a ramp that leads to the Lincoln Tunnel.

The Pendry Manhattan West Hotel appears to be ready to open in early 2021.

  1. There is no way this hotel is opening in “early 2021”. I live directly across from it at The Eugene and have watched the construction from day one. While the project is certainly far along, the interior floors are all still very raw (mostly concrete slab still). Any sort of “grand opening” is probably mid-2021 at the earliest.

  2. This is an extremely handsome building.

    Gene Kaufmann, take a look at how it’s done. Then retire. SOM’s got this…

    Love this building. Looks even better in person.

  5. Understated elegance and serene. A perfectly calming influence for a tired traveler.

  6. The façade is stunning. To say it wouldn’t have come cheap is an understatement. Odds are the panels came from China but still . . .

  7. The setback from the older neighboring building really rubs crap all over it though.

  8. The Pendry Hotel is handsome, sleek, elegant, and quality. This is one of the my favorite Hudson Yards buildings to date.

  9. This is one of the nicest new buildings in NYC. No value engineering here!

    Well done!

  10. Singularly beautiful.

    Yes it is possible to do a decent looking hotel building in NYC.
    All it takes is a decent commercial architectural firm and the money to do it – period.
    Time for Gene Kaufmann and his like to exit the stage!
