In a collaboration of some of the flashiest names in contemporary art and design. Thompson’s Lower East Side property is for the young and restless. Designed by Ed Rawlings Architects, with interiors with Jim Walrod, Thompson LES radiates the creative undercurrent of its neighborhood. Among the hotel’s edge-defining backdrops are its façade, embodying the ultimate in clean, industrial New York. 141 rooms featuring custom-made light-boxes by Lee Friedlander and graphic paintings by Ryan McGinness, a rooftop pool displaying an image of Andy Warhol, creative by Gerard Malanga, and its restaurant featuring large scale paintings by legendary artist Peter Halley. Thompson LES’s 18 stories also house a labyrinth of social hotspots such as an outdoor pool and bar, Above Allen, a private outdoor-indoor terrace bar open year round, and is proud to the recent opening of Blue Ribbon Sushi Izakaya.
