Architects selected to renovate Hotel Bossert in Heights
Gwathmey Siegel Kaufman + Associates Architects (GSKA) has been selected to preserve and return the historic Hotel Bossert to its original use as a luxury hotel destination.
As the Eagle has reported, the landmark at 98 Montague St., which had been privately owned and operated by The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, was acquired by developer David Bistricer and his firm Clipper Equity. That developer selected GSKA.
GSKA’s proposed plan for the hotel is to preserve the iconic façade as well as the magnificently ornate and restored lobby and reception area and to return the famed Marine Roof to its use as a restaurant and lounge, according to Gene Kaufman, principal at GSKA and the leader of the project team with Steven Forman.
