Ten floors of an office tower in Rockefeller Center will be converted into short-term rentals, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday. RXR Realty, which has leased the tower at 75 Rockefeller Plaza since 2012, has partnered with Airbnb to transform a portion of the 87-year-old building into about 200 units of high-end short term lodging. In a press release, RXR CEO Scott Rechler described the new venture as a “travel experience that immerses guests in a dynamic, thriving community in the heart of Rockefeller Center that’s vastly different than anything else in the market today.”
While RXR will operate the building, Airbnb will feature the listings on its online platform. According to the companies, they will collaborate on room design, as well as curating local experiences, amenities, and technologies at the site. The rooms will be designed to feel like both “luxurious and comfortable” apartment-style suites, all equipped with fully stocked kitchens.
