Danny Meyer to Revamp Revolving Restaurant in New York City

Synopsis: Union Square Hospitality Group (USHG) and the New York Marriott Marquis are revitalizing the iconic View Restaurant & Lounge, New York City's only revolving restaurant, which initially opened in 1985 but closed in 2020. Located atop the Times Square hotel, the revamped venue will blend scenic views with a new dining experience inspired by classic supper clubs. Design firm Rockwell Group is redesigning the space, halting its rotation while introducing two levels: a bar and lounge with small plates and a main dining room offering updated American classics and elaborate desserts. The new concept aims to attract both locals and tourists, with an extensive wine program also planned.
