The bell tolls anew for Manhattan's Clock Tower.

The New York EDITION, a hotel by Ian Schrager in partnership with Marriott International, is located in the landmark Metropolitan Life Tower. While respecting and restoring much of the tower's original character and details, Rockwell Group worked with Schrager's design team to bring sophisticated, clean-lined luxury to the lobby, guest rooms, and restaurant.

A building with great bones.

The hotel is located in the 1909 Gothic-style building, also known as the Clock Tower. The architects, Napoleon LeBrun & Sons, modeled it after the Campanile in Venice, Italy. The 41-story tower overlooks leafy Madison Square Park.
