History
A century of hospitality on West 46th Street.
The building went up in 1902, two years before the square at the end of the block was renamed Times Square and the Theater District began to gather around it. West 46th Street filled with Broadway houses in the decades that followed, and this block has spent more than a century in hospitality: welcoming people who came to Midtown for a season, a run, or a job. The 46 continues that use in its plainest form, as a place to live for a summer, a semester, or a year.
Floors
Nine stories, top to bottom.
Common spaces are on the lower levels; the rooms are stacked above them, every floor with a mix of the five room types, and rooms on higher floors carry a slightly higher rate. One elevator serves every floor.
