Marriott building world’s tallest modular hotel

On-site construction of the AC Hotel New York NoMad will begin this fall with an opening planned for late 2020. The 168-room, 26-story hotel will be erected over 90 days and, once fully built, will stand 360 feet tall. According to Marriott International, it will be the world’s largest modular hotel. Fully outfitted guestrooms will arrive at the construction site with bed, sheets, pillows, flooring and toiletries already inside. Marriott plans to use modular construction for the hotel’s roof and rooftop bar as well. Its more customized public areas, including the restaurant and lobby, are expected to be built using traditional methods. “We wanted to demonstrate that modular building can do more than just harness the efficiencies of the factory,” Danny Forster, president and founder of Danny Forster & Architecture, the firm that designed the project, said in a statement. “It can produce a graceful and iconic tower. And yes, it can do so at the rate of an entire floor a day.”Marriott said it began researching modular construction in 2014. In 2015 it began hosting town halls, factory tours and stacking events to educate owners, franchisees, architects, lenders, consultants, general contractors and other stakeholders on the benefits of modular construction. Since the initiative’s launch, its development partners have opened 31 Marriott-brand hotels using prefabricated guestrooms and/or bathrooms. “The world’s tallest modular hotel in one of the world’s greatest destinations will act as a game-changing symbol to ignite even greater interest in modular among the real estate and lending industries,” Eric Jacobs, chief development officer, North America, select and extended stay brands at Marriott, said in a statement.

Advantages of Being a Server

Advantages of Being a Server

Despite tired feet, unruly guests, and job demands, there are many advantages to holding a job as a server. These include: Monetary benefits Flexible hours Contact with people Minimal investment in wardrobe Pleasant surroundings Job satisfaction One of the advantages of being a server is that you may be compensated well for providing good services to the guests you serve in a restaurant. In elegant restaurants and restaurants with quick turnover, a server who provides good service can make more money in tips and wages than a cook, administrative assistant, police officer, flight attendant, or school teacher. You may also be eligible for free or reduced-priced meals from the restaurant. Restaurant establishments operate for several hours extending over the periods for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and into the evening. You might consider working weekends and evenings a disadvantage, but the flexible hours allow many people to work around another job or family responsibilities. As a server, another advantage is that you can meet many interesting people as you serve your guests. You have the chance to interact with people of all ages and from all walks of life. Occasionally, you may even serve a celebrity. Unlike a job in an office, which requires a large investment in business clothing, as a server, you are only required to buy a few uniforms and comfortable shoes. Some people also find working as a server in pleasant surroundings advantageous. Many restaurants have a very elaborate decor and atmosphere. You may also have an opportunity to sample a variety of food.
