At a glance, Club 49 aims to be competition for Top Of The Rock but at closer inspection it's bottle service among the billboards. With uninspired decor on the main level- semi-private booths and curved cocktails tables against the......

It's always been one of our dreams to watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade from a hotel room overlooking the parade route-- and then to jump on to the top of the Big Bird balloon, and ride him (her?) triumphantly down Broadway to Herald Square. If you have similar ambitions, you should definitely check out Hotel Chatter's list of hotels on the parade route: Sheraton New York Hotel & Tower This hotel is just finishing......

Project Billboard and Clear Channel have settled the fracas surrounding PB's proposed anti-war billboard (the one with a bomb, left): Project Billboard gets space on the Conde Nast building for the same billboard, but with a dove instead, plus space on the W Hotel (Broadway & 47th Street) for an electronic ticker that shows the "Total Cost of Iraq War" for the U.S. - both for the price of one board; Clear Channel gets to......
