There are no press releases, no online reviews of the property, and no other publicly-visible indications that it is open. The GM's LinkedIn profile says the property will open in the "first quarter of 2019". An Eater article on the Voltaggio restaurant in the hotel says it will open Mid-March.

Unless they are doing an extremely soft opening, I cannot find any indication that this property has in fact opened.

Still walking by the property every day. Lobby and valet areas look ready, but a quick glance at the upper floors leads me to believe not all the rooms are. The only thing that has opened is the Tiffany store on the west side of the building.
