Overview |
 |
Bridging the gap between old and new, New York's famous landmark Guardian
Life Building has undergone renovations and reemerged as the stylish W New
York - Union Square. The 1911 Guardian Life building - designed in the
Beaux-Arts style - is a magnificent granite and limestone structure with
all the exquisite details inherent in traditional European architecture.
Designed by famed architect David Rockwell, W New York - Union Square
combines the charm of this ethereal historic building with the
contemporary W touch. But don't take our word for it - just refer to the
2003 Condé Nast Traveler's "Top 500 Hotels in the World" list.
