CGCC Members Attend W Downtown Hotel Chinese New Year’s Celebration
On Thursday February 23, 2015, the W Downtown in New York hosted a Chinese New Year’s celebration titled “Rock the Empire” at their New York location on 123 Washington Street in downtown Manhattan.
CGCC members who attended included Sinopec USA, Fosun International, Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, Eisner Amper, Broad USA, and Miller Canfield, among others.
The W Hotels are a luxury hotel chain owned by Starwood & Hotels and Resorts Worldwide. The chain was launched in 1998 with the W New York 49th Street and Lexington Ave location. In the next ten years the W Hotels grew tremendously in the United States, at which point it began to focus on expansion efforts abroad. Today, the widely popular W Hotel chain operates over forty hotels in over twenty countries.
In addition to the New Year’s celebration, the event served to commemorate the opening of the W Beijing-Chang’an. This newly opened hotel in the heart of Beijing has received highly favorable reviews since its opening and is a great addition to the W hotel line.
CGCC would like to thank the W Hotel in New York for inviting our organization and members to the celebration. We wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year – Year of the Sheep!
