Cooper Carry Wins
Hoboken Hotel Project
Cooper Carry, the internationally
recognized design firm, has been awarded a 200-room,
140,000-square-foot hotel project located on the Hudson
River in Hoboken. The project will include the
reorganization and reconfiguration of aspects of the current
Hoboken post office — located at River and First Streets —
in order to accommodate the new hotel.
Philadelphia-based KMS Development Partners is developing
the 20-story hotel under an agreement with the United States
Postal Service. The project is currently in schematic
design, but preliminary plans call for the hotel to be
located behind the current post office. Postal activity on
the site will continue.
“As one of the few remaining waterfront sites in Hoboken,
this project represents a strategic opportunity to enhance
and anchor the southern end of the riverfront promenade,”
said Ben Wauford, principal and director of Cooper Carry’s
New York office. “This hotel offers the chance to add energy
to the Hoboken skyline and create a strategic hospitality
destination. We have an enlightened development team that is
going to deliver a huge success for everyone.”
Loading spaces will be relocated along First Street, giving
the hotel frontage along Frank Sinatra Drive. Additionally,
guests will have easy access to restaurants and shops along
the Esplanade and Pier Park.
Cooper Carry’s hospitality group has created hotels both
nationally and internationally for several major brands,
including Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton, Starwood and
Intercontinental, as well as many boutique developers and
operators of hotels and spas. The company is also actively
involved in two hotel projects in Staten Island and East
Harlem.
