Mapping the Condos and Hotels That Are Transforming NoMad

It took awhile, but NoMad—the neighborhood and the neighborhood name—is here. The transformation from a nameless, WTF-is-there “brown zone” on the map to a trendy, desirable neighborhood slowly began in the mid-aughts after the revitalization of Madison Square Park, and over the last few years, development in NoMad has charged full speed ahead. The Ace Hotel and early condo conversions like the Grand Madison paved the way, and now the small area, roughly between 25th and 30th Streets and Lexington and Sixth Avenues, is welcoming new boutique hotels and residential buildings all the time. For our latest Microhood Map, we tracked buildings and hotels that opened within the last three years and those currently in the works. See one that we missed?
