While Andaz 5th Avenue moved up its date by a few weeks, it looks like the Gansevoort Park Avenue NYC has moved theirs back–by only by a week. The hotel will now open on July 26. Room rates are still holding steady at $395 a night and we’ve also learned that the hotel’s Italian restaurant and second-level bar will not be opening until the fall.

The rooftop playground, however, should open when the hotel does. After all, with this heat in NYC how can the hotel deny guests another place to seek relief? Simply, they cannot. It would be cruel. Now let’s hope July 26 goes off with a splash!
