I've been thinking for 15 or 20 years about how there's no center to the theater community. The builder was building this hotel on 48th Street, just west of aid. And they came to me saying, we're wondering what kind of hotel this should be. I said, well, if you want me involved, I think it shouldn't be defined by being a Marriott or a Moxie and that honors what makes this neighborhood with these 41 theaters totally unique.
