The Fairlane is opening today.   : )

The 81 rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows and semi-transparent peekaboo showers crafted from custom walnut. Other highlights include a 4,000-square-foot penthouse, rooftop neon sign and, in the lobby, a vintage bar cart serving local spirits and bottled Coca Cola in the late afternoon.  It is also home to food and beverage offerings Ellington’s Mid Way Bar & Grill, Mile End Delicatessen, and Union Teller Coffee Counter.

I plan on checking it out in person Saturday after our Urban Planet Meet-Up and snapping more pics.

I hope they have or will spray wash the exterior facade of the tower. It was looking nasty at one point.

After our Urban Planet March Meet-Up, ten of us walked over to the brand new Fairlane Hotel yesterday. here are some pics of the lobby area and the outdoor deck at the Penthouse Level.   Simply beautiful. Tomorrow I'll post pics of some of the rooms, including the $2,000 per night Penthouse Suites.

I really love the style that they went with for this one. It's a lot better to me than a lot of the southern-chic styles you see in a lot of the other hotels going up right now, and it seems to be establishing a bit of a nice aesthetic theme with this, the Dream/Utopia, and the Noelle all so near each other in the CBD. I hope that we see a lot more like it in the future.

My aunt worked in the Fairlane building back in the 1970s and early 1980s for Fidelity Savings and Loan (old school, I know), and it blew her away about how different the building looks when I showed her the pictures. Of course, that was back when you didn’t wander too close to Printers Alley

The lobby and outdoor space looks ok but the rest is kind of depressing to me. I know some might like it but I’ll have to pass.

This place gives me a strong 70's or The Shining vibe. Half expect a kid to come flying around the corner riding a big wheel.

Don't you mean, "the shinning"?

I adore what's happened with this building!

[markhollin]

Ellington's Mid Way Bar & Grill will open to the public on July 27 on the fourth floor of the Fairlane Hotel at 401 Union St. The restaurant is the third dining option to open in the 81-room hotel, behind ground-floor tenants Union Teller Coffee Counter and Mile End Deli.

Ellington’s will serve “timeless all-American fare” and classic cocktails, according to its website. It will be open for lunch, dinner, weekend brunch and late-night cocktails.

Like the hotel, the restaurant’s decor features mid-century architectural design with 1960s and ‘70s features. Ellington’s has a wraparound terrace with lounge seating and fire pits, and two private dining rooms.

Planning for an upcoming event and had a chance to tour the two penthouse suites at The Fairlane (that's the larger of the two in the photo).       They're really well done and would be an amazing venue for an event.

Cheese Gal, known for its cheese and charcuterie boards, is making the Fairlane its new permanent home. Juniper Green, which offers seasonal event catering and at-home meal options, is popping up for three months at the Fairlane.
