SITE 3

Hi,

I'm choosing site 3 for this project because it offers an extraordinary view; from the skyline, to the Statue of Liberty. Also we have an easy access to the pier that is located next to it.

    Your site analysis is thorough, well presented and easy to read! Well done to you and your classmates! The site you chose seems to offer a variety of challenges as well as opportunities. I am looking forward to see what you will come up with.

  3. Hi Yerina

    What is the difference between a boutique hotel and a "normal hotel"?
    On a trip to New york last February I stayed in Dream Downtown hotel and I have to say I found it terribly dissapointing. The rooms are very standard and small and the circulation is typically long, artificialy light and ventilated. The plan is the usual double loaded corridor and the experience is that of being in any mid market hotel anywhere in the world and sadly not in one of the most exciting cities in the world (in my opinion anyway)
    Not sure what your analysis is trying to achieve. Perhaps looking at densities of rooms i.e. how efficient in plan are the examples you have chosen, how many rooms can be accommodated into a certain area, looking at the analysis of trying to avoid the very efficient double loaded corridor to achieve a much more pleasant experience for the visitor to your hotel.
    The site looks interesting and the analysis is good, it gives a good impression for someone who is not familiar with this area. Looking forward to seeing your ideas develop.

    Regards

    Graeme
