New York(April 14, 2006) - The famous New York institution,
the Winchester Hotel, established in 1887, has just announced its intention to enter the convention market. In a press release today, the hotel’s management announced that it will demolish several adjacent buildings, which it also owns, to make way for a new convention center to be known as the Winchester Center. The design, already approved by the New York City Council, involves ultra-modern facilities that will be linked to the existing hotel by an atrium.
One of New York’s most successful architects, the award-winning Lars Svendersen, has accepted the challenge of creating a beautiful and functional new center while not diminishing the elegance of the existing hotel. "My design intends to complement the beautiful Victorian structure. It is understated, but at the same time elegant. It will also be multi-functional. The atrium will encourage informal meetings, while the new convention center will offer state-of-the-art audio-visual technology, exhibition halls of several sizes, and, not far away, access to a health club, restaurants, and bars. My aim is to conserve the best of a past world while offering a stimulating contrast in the design of the new center."
