"With the monumental Brooklyn Bridge as its immediate next-door neighbor, the hotel overlooks the meadows and wetlands of its namesake park, the unobstructed lower Manhattan skyline, and even the Statue of Liberty beyond. This outpost of 1 Hotel marks the first of the hospitality brand's locations to be purpose-built from the ground up. It stands at the head of Brooklyn Bridge Park, an elongated, once-industrial stretch of the East River waterfront."
"The 1 Hotel lobby opens directly from the park as a double-height room with a dramatic, framed view of the Brooklyn Bridge. A 25-foot green wall rises along one edge, dense with living plants held in a lightweight metal framework. Warm daylight floods the space and catches on stone floors, reclaimed wood beams, and steel columns. The interior design is curated to echo the atmosphere of the park outside, which is defined by its industrial heritage together with its picturesque, overgrown nature."
1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge occupies the head of Brooklyn Bridge Park and frames direct views of the Brooklyn Bridge, lower Manhattan skyline, and the Statue of Liberty. The property is the first 1 Hotel location purpose-built from the ground up and integrates with the park's converted pier landscape of meadows, rambles, and wetlands. Marvel Architects and interiors firm INC designed the hotel to be an active part of the park, using a natural material palette and sustainable operations. The lobby opens from the park into a double-height space with a 25-foot living green wall, reclaimed wood beams, stone floors, and curated artworks referencing industrial heritage.
