Lightstone’s $3.5 billion development portfolio currently includes over 4,300 residential units and over 3,100 hotel keys, which we’ve developed from the ground up. We use a 360-degree approach covering every aspect of development and construction from site selection and competitive analysis to design and programming, construction management, and marketing. Our extensive expertise in all facets of development provides us with unique insight in approaching each project, allowing us to successfully execute on new development projects across the residential, hospitality, and retail sectors. We approach each new development with the consumer in mind as we transform our vision into creative and functional spaces in a cost-effective manner.

 

Residential properties with a focus on our residents.

Lightstone’s success in the New York City residential market is founded on our commitment to build uniquely designed, distinctively-positioned, and environmentally-conscious buildings that enrich the lives of their residents. In each new development, we establish a deep understanding of what today’s residents need, conceptualizing homes and amenities that go beyond necessities. In doing so, we create award-winning developments, each with a distinct and unique lifestyle experience, and all featuring unparalleled service.

Design is at the forefront of our residential developments. We collaborate with some of the world’s most prestigious architecture and interior design teams to create thoughtful living spaces that are also works of art.

In 2019, we opened two more Moxy hotels in New York City—Moxy Chelsea and Moxy East Village. Following these award-winning openings were Moxy South Beach (2021), Moxy Lower East Side (2022), and New York’s Moxy Williamsburg (2023). Additionally, we opened Moxy Downtown Los Angeles and AC Hotel Downtown Los Angeles in April 2023, winner of American Lodging Investment Summit’s (ALIS) Development of the Year.

 

HOSPITALITY DEVELOPMENTS

Full Lightstone Portfolio

Affordable Micro-Format Lifestyle Hotels

After spending many years investing in and studying urban hospitality markets, we identified an opportunity: micro-room, macro-amenity lifestyle hotels that offer affordability without any sacrifice of style or comfort. The Moxy brand aligned perfectly with this concept, and we partnered with Marriott International to launch the brand’s flagship hotel, Moxy Times Square.

At our Moxy hotels, cozy, cleverly designed guestrooms are coupled with generous public spaces offering innovative restaurant and bar scenes, co-working lounges, and transformable meeting spaces.
