In January 2000, 55 Wall Street, designated a historical landmark, became the first luxury hotel in New York’s financial district. Designed by Boston architect Isaiah Rogers in 1836 in a classical Roman style on a grand scale, the Regent Wall Street was originally home to National City Bank. It provides five-star hospitality and is decorated in a contemporary interpretation of Italian design. The 144 rooms and suites all have high ceilings, an attribute rarely found in modern-construction properties, are decorated in velvets, chenille and silk damask, and boast views of Wall Street or overlook an interior courtyard (if your suite overlooks Wall Street, the view West to Trinity Church is indeed breathtaking). They all have marble bathrooms with a soaking tub for two and separate shower. |
