Moxy Lower East Side hotel development Lightstone

Lightstone Tops Out on Moxy Hotels in Manhattan and Brooklyn

Lightstone has topped out construction of two Moxy hotels in New York City. Moxy Lower East Side and Moxy Williamsburg, set to open in late 2022, add to Lightstone’s growing hospitality portfolio, which includes four open Moxy hotels: Moxy Times Square, Moxy Chelsea, and Moxy East Village in New York, and Moxy South Beach in Miami.  

Located at 145 Bowery, between Grand and Broome streets, Moxy Lower East Side reached its pinnacle at 18 stories. Moxy Williamsburg, located at 353 Bedford Ave, between 4th Street and 5th Streets, reached its full height at 11 stories. 

“The success of our first three Moxys in Manhattan underscores the demand for our trademark style of hospitality,” said Mitchell Hochberg, president of Lightstone. “The timing is also perfect, as New York City makes its dramatic comeback from the past year. We are proud to be part of the city’s renaissance.”
