McSam Hotel Group, on August 28, filed a permit application for construction of a 103-room, 28,853-square-foot hotel building at 62 Mulberry Street in Chinatown.

The plans call for the construction of a 132-foot tall, 13-story hotel.

The project is described in the filings as: hereby filing for new 13-story, R-1 hotel.

According to the plans, the cellar of the building will have three hotel rooms, an exercise room, break room, and pantry. The ground floor will have four hotel rooms, a community facility, and reception area. Floors two through 13 will each have eight hotel rooms.

Gene Kaufman Architect will be in charge of the architecture for the development.
