December 28th and people are wearing sweaters.
The Gansevoort Hotel has a very Wallpaper moderne lobby. Hugely high ceilings and a great deal of pink.
Even the elevator is cool and I'm suitable impressed.
They put Claudia's name on her bathrobe. A perk you do not get at home.
From the Sky bar you look south down on a building whose facade is lit in different colors.
They change every few minutes.
THis was a favorite place to have a drink at sunset. I am coming to NCY new Years day for the weekend and was packing wool pants and layers of cashmere. I always remember that New Years eve was the most frigid night of the year, even if the temps were balmy in Nov and Dec. Why? Because it was the only night I wanted to wear a skimpy dress and slingbacks, lol. Hmmm wonder if I need to change what I'm packing.
