Looks like the unbranded Manhattan at Times Square [former Sheraton Manhattan] will be formally undergoing a 250 million dollar renovation under its new Qatari owners and will reopen by the end of 2017 as a W. I'm attaching an announcement from Qatar's Peninsula newspaper seeing that the work week in the Middle East starts today; a Starwood announcement must be imminent.
Interesting to see this hotel coming back into Starwood's fold... Let's hope the renovation really brings it up to the standards we expect.

I hope they strip it to the studs and replace the systems in order for this to work.
So there will be two W hotels "on" Times Square? What will the name of this property be? the "W Times Square - North" or "W Times Square - Theatre District"?
if they keep the floor plates the same there will be some nice sized rooms/studio suites.

Whoa! Didn't see that coming. I'm not a architect, but I hope they put more into this property than 250 million. Sound like a cheap redo, a la W Lakeshore - Chicago.

W New York - Manhattan? Fitting to the current hotel and the Sheraton Manhattan before it, but maybe a bit confusing given that all the Ws in New York are in/on Manhattan?

Also didn't see this one coming and it makes me wonder if maybe we will have a pending loss of another W in NYC being announced.
