Millennium Downtown New York
The Millennium Downtown New York, formerly Millennium Hilton, is located at 55 Church Street on the southeast corner of Fulton Street in Lower Manhattan. It opened in 1992, is owned by Millennium & Copthorne Hotels and has a total of 471 guest rooms and 98 suites.
This 55-story skyscraper was developed by Peter Stephen Kalikow and designed by Eli Attia. It opened on June 10, 1992, as The Millenium Hotel. By 1994 or before, Kalikow went into bankruptcy and it was sold to Singapore-based City Developments Limited in June 1994. At that time, Hilton began managing the property as The Millenium Hilton.
The hotel suffered extensive damage from the September 11 attacks. Then the hotel was closed, renovated and reopened on May 5, 2003. In 2017, the hotel was renamed the Millennium Hilton New York Downtown. The hotel ceased to be managed by Hilton on January 18, 2022, and was then given its current name.
The hotel facilities include business center, fitness center, meeting rooms, lobby bar Liquid Assets and more.
The hotel is in Financial District, near Broadway, City Hall Park, St. Paul's Chapel, One World Observatory and 9/11 Memorial Museum, the Oculus (home to 12 subway lines), the Museum of Art and Technology (Mercer Labs) and more.
