The High Line Hotel | Forbes | June 17, 2019 | VPM: 29,788,885 Jun 17, 2019, 03:00pm Best Boutique Hotels in New York City This story was written in collaboration with Forbes Finds.

But in a city like New York that throbs with creative energy, there’s a definite appeal to staying in a more indie, smaller, even quirky place. But one with the best service and amenities, of course. Here are some of the best boutique hotels the city has to offer. The lobby of the High Line Hotel HIGH LINE HOTEL The High Line Hotel The 60 rooms and suites of the High Line Hotel occupy the redbrick General Theological Seminary complex—once the estate of A Visit from St. Nicholas poet Clement Clarke Moore and a registered landmark. The gardens and buildings behind the hotel still function as an Episcopalian seminary, with the students taking some of their meals in hotel facilities. But the hotel itself hits all the 2019 buttons: cool neighborhood (West Chelsea), food trucks outside, Intelligentsia coffee, Shinola bicycles, faux-rotary phones. The front garden bar—which helped popularize the frozen Negroni a few years ago—is now a homage to the late psychic and artist Ingo Swann. https://www.forbes.com/sites/annabel/2019/06/17/best-boutique-hotels-in-new-york-city/#7239df45db2d .

Geoffrey Weill Associates | www.geoffreyweill.com The High Line Hotel | TravelandLeisure.com | 3 June 2015 | VPM: 10,076,768 New York City’s Meatpacking District is far from up-and-coming, but the opening of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s new $760 million building means the southwest Manhattan neighborhood is reveling in a visitor resurgence. And the new arrivals don’t stop at the Whitney: there are plenty of boutiques, restaurants, and other worthwhile detours to keep visitors busy. Ahead, our ideal itinerary for a day spent in and around the new Whitney. Breakfast at Gansevoort Market 1 of 10 Start your day at the 6-month-old Gansevoort Market, where 24 vendors serve up everything from coffee to Basque tapas. The recently renovated food hall is on the site of the original Gansevoort Market, which was the country’s largest outdoor trading post in the 1800s. Grab a cappuccino from Champion Coffee and a brioche-muffin filled with savory treats at the Bruffin Café. Or stop at Yiaourti Greek yogurt bar, where the yogurt is made on-site. Mismatched tables and chairs provide seating under a skylight, and vines snaking up the walls add to the ambiance. Whitney Museum of American Art 2 of 10 After breakfast, head up the street to the Whitney’s new Renzo Piano-designed home on the waterfront. Since it re-opened on May 1, this 85-year-old art institution has claimed its place as the neighborhood’s largest draw. The inaugural exhibit, a survey of American art from 1900 to the present, culls from the museum’s holdings to bring new light to familiar icons and obscure works hidden away in storage for decades.

CITY OF NEW YORK MANHATTAN COMMUNITY BOARD FOUR nd th 330 West 42 Street, 26 floor New York, NY 10036 tel: 212-736-4536 fax: 212-947-9512 www.nyc.gov/mcb4 DELORES RUBIN Chair JESSE BODINE District Manager February 10, 2016 Hon. Meenakshi Srinivasan, Chair Landmarks Preservation Commission Municipal Building, 9th floor One Centre Street New York, NY 10007 Re: Recurring Seasonal Bar, High Line Hotel, 180 Tenth Avenue Dear Chair Srinivasan: On the recommendation of its Chelsea Land Use Committee, Manhattan Community Board No. 4 (CB4), at its regularly scheduled meeting on February 3, 2016, voted, by a vote of 36 in favor, 0 opposed, 0 abstaining and 2 present but not eligible to vote, to recommend denial unless certain conditions are met, of an application to the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) for a Master Plan for a recurring seasonal bar in the areaway/forecourt of the High Line Hotel at 180 Tenth Avenue. The hotel is part of a complex of English Gothic style buildings, the General Theological Seminary, which is in the Chelsea Historic District. The conditions CB4 is placing on its recommendation are informed by the community’s deep disappointment with the loss of visibility of the General Theological Seminary’s historic facades. This loss is caused by features added to the building's areaway that are far beyond those presented to CB4 and in a public hearing of the Commission in 2013, and as approved by the Commission under Certificate of Appropriateness (CofA) 14-5938, issued on 7/8/13. The current areaway is unrecognizable as the design for which this CofA was issued.

I Saw the Grand Reception Room and Thought, It Was Timeless And
TILER AND ROBBIE’S CLASSIC MANHATTAN NUPTIALS Photography: Charlotte Jenks Lewis THE COUPLE Given that she regularly pirouettes before huge audiences, Tiler Peck doesn’t get worked up easily. But on June 22, 2014, when it came time for her to walk down the aisle of the Chapel of the Good Shepherd at the General Theological Seminary in New York City toward her husband-to-be, Robert Fairchild, she had to lower her eyes in order to contain her emotions. As for Robbie, also a principal dancer for the New York City Ballet? “My knees started to shake, and I got teary,” he says. Once they met before the priest for their Episcopalian blessing and celebration, the nerves turned to joy. “We were both so happy to be marrying our best friend,” says Tiler. Flash back. Way back to 2001. Tiler was 11, Robbie, 13, when the two first met in a jazz dance class in NYC. Over the next 11 years, they experienced the drama of a youthful relationship’s leaps, twists, and turns: dating, breaking up, reuniting, and splitting again before they got together for good in 2011. A year and a half later, Robbie orchestrated an elaborate proposal, luring Tiler to Paris by telling her they were needed there for press photos. Before the “shoot,” he asked her to climb the steps up to the Sacré-Coeur church to check out the view. “I was complaining because it was raining,” she recalls. “Then he got on his knee, and I knew.” Tiler had a similar intuition months later when a friend showed them The High Line Hotel in Manhattan, and her vision for the wedding fell into place.

(Historic) Place to Stay in New York City: the High Line Hotel
Geoffrey Weill Associates | www.geoffreyweill.com The High Line Hotel | Forbes.com | 16 January 2014 | VPM: 9,956,125 Ann Abel, Contributor 1/16/2014 @ 1:09PM The Hippest New (Historic) Place To Stay In New York City: The High Line Hotel The High Line Hotel hits all the main hipster hotel buttons. Cool neighborhood? Check. (West Chelsea, a stone’s throw from the High Line elevated-railroad park and the city’s top art galleries.) Food truck outside? Check. (A shiny 1960s Citroën model.) Pedigreed coffee (the first New York outpost of Chicago cult fave Intelligentsia). A rustic-industrial look with reclaimed woods and exposed steel girders. Cruiser bikes for guests to borrow. Retro details like 1920s rotary phones. Flashy events (fashion shows, holiday parties for style magazines). Craft cocktails named for esoteric fruit. No wonder the creative community has been flocking here for the seven months it’s been open. But where it aces its more standard cool-hunting competitors (pun intended) is in its historical bona fides. The hotel’s 60 rooms and suites (from $259) occupy the redbrick General Theological Seminary complex—built in the 18th century as the estate of A Visit from St. Nicholas poet Clement Clarke Moore—a registered landmark. The gardens and buildings behind the hotel still function as an Episcopalian seminary, with the students taking some of their meals in hotel facilities. But there’s nothing monastic about it. The rooms are large by Manhattan standards, and the bathrooms are especially generous, with subway-tiled showers and gorgeous black-and-white floors that would inspire envy in anyone who’s lived in a real New York apartment (at least this one.) The sweet-smelling amenities are from C.O.

High Line Hotel the High Line Hotel, in a Former Seminary, Opened Two Years Ago
High Line Hotel The High Line Hotel, in a former seminary, opened two years ago. Locals still flock there for many reasons: the Intelligentsia Coffee stand in the lobby; Alta Linea, the new outdoor Italian restaurant; and the gorgeous garden out back, connected to a functioning cathedral. Guests also have free access to the hotel’s Shinola bikes to explore the surrounding areas and the West Side Highway. 180 Tenth Avenue, thehighlinehotel.com Link to story: http://www.travelandleisure.com/articles/best-places-west-chelsea-new-york New York City’s Meatpacking District is far from up-and-coming, but the opening of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s new $760 million building means the southwest Manhattan neighborhood is reveling in a visitor resurgence.

Check in at the High Line Hotel 9 of 10 Entering the Gothic brick High Line Hotel feels a bit like stepping into a Wes Anderson film. The landmarked building—formerly part of the General Theological Seminary—was reimagined by legendary design firm Roman & Williams. For the 60 rooms and suites, the design team sourced Victorian or Edwardian antiques, taxidermy, Oriental rugs, and 1920s rotary phones, which combine to create a sophisticated throwback vibe. This month, the seasonal bar and restaurant Alta Linea opens in the front garden serving Italian aperitivi, perfect for those warm nights ahead.
