New
York, N.Y. ... The Millenium Hotel, New York
believes “Travel should take you places,” and
lower Manhattan should hold a place on your short
lists of places to go. Beyond the glitz of Times
Square’s light. Away from the green of Central
Park, lower Manhattan is the doorway to New York.
It is where it all began and where it all still
is. The hotel stands regally as only a truly
modern glass structure can – particularly one
that sits squarely in the Financial District
–Manhattan’s oldest enclave.

New
York, N.Y. ... When the planes hit the Towers,
the shock blew out the windows of the first
thirty floors of the Millenium and the entire
building’s interior was covered in the clouds of
dust that billowed out from the destruction. With
Ground-Zero viewable from many of its hotel
rooms, The Millenium stood silent sentry over the
destruction, clean-up and now rebuilding of the
site, even as the hotel was completely
refurbished. Today the Millenium has a story so
very unique, but one that is shared with all
those that survived that day, including Jason
Tresh, who now walks past “Ground Zero” everyday
to his job as director of the
hotel.Let's

New
York, N.Y. ... While Castle Clinton is a modern
day recreation destination, it is also the
beginning of New York’s first story. The story of
immigration and freedom. Well before Ellis Island
became the first stop for millions of European
immigrants, Castle Clinton, or as it was called
in the mid-1800’sm Castle Garden was the world’s
first immigration depot, processing millions of
people who settled into the Battery Park area.
And they brought their stories to New York City.
Stories filled with hopes, loss, family and the
new beginnings they traveled to find.
