Caspi Development today announced the topping out of 456 Greenwich Street in Tribeca, the future home of the elegant five-star Hotel Barrière Le Fouquet’s New York. Managed under the prestigious Groupe Barrière brand, the property will encompass 96 beautifully appointed guest rooms and suites.
Ideally situated between Desbrosses Street and Washington Street in the heart of the Tribeca North Historic District, the eight-story hotel will feature several intimate food and beverage destinations. World-renowned amenities will include a private spa, swimming pool, an interior courtyard, state-of-the-art screening room, and board rooms.
“As a flagship of the esteemed Groupe Barrière brand, the hotel will open as one of the finest hospitality destinations in New York,” said Joshua Caspi, Principal of Caspi Development. “The topping out of 456 Greenwich Street represents a culmination of six years of tireless work by all involved, and it is our aspiration that the property will serve as a beacon of hope to the future of the city.”
