Façade work is rapidly progressing on the recently topped-out 150 West 48th Street, a 418-foot-tall, 38-story triple-brand Hilton hotel tower in Times Square. Designed by Gene Kaufman Architect and developed by Sam Chang of McSam Hotel Group, the 320,000-square-foot structure will yield 1,046 hotel rooms with a Hampton Inn, a Home 2 Suites, and a Motto Hotel, Hilton’s newest brand of micro-hotels. McSam Hotel Group purchased the Midtown, Manhattan site from Rockefeller Group in early 2019 for $140 million, and also received a $250 loan before construction broke ground last year. Omnibuild is in charge of erecting the tower, which is located by the corner of West 48th Street and Seventh Avenue.
Significant progress has occurred since our last update in April, when the reinforced concrete superstructure had just passed the halfway mark. Exterior work is now approaching completion, with the majority of the building clad in a façade of gray brick masonry walls and sections of floor-to-ceiling glass. The western side of the tower is left as a blank concrete wall, while the roof parapet is being fitted out.

The exterior consists of three brick colors and an orthodox grid of operable windows, with recessed edges clad in glass. The second-floor setback will eventually be topped with a green roof.

Protective plastic covers a remaining portion of the glass during construction and will be removed once completion draws closer.

A rooftop bar with a double-height space will be positioned at the top of the southern elevation and will provide views over Times Square and the nearby Midtown district.

The property will feature two ground-floor lobbies and ten elevators, with six for the Hampton Inn, two for the Home 2 Suites, and four for the Motto Hotel. The first level will also encompass a five-part storefront. Amenities for guests include a restaurant and cafe, a lounge, a rooftop bar, and two gyms. Omnibuild built the structure without the use of a tower crane and topped out 150 West 48th Street with a concrete water tower that will be enclosed in steel-supported architectural louvers. Mechanical equipment would sit adjacent.
150 West 48th Street is slated for completion by fall 2022.
