Well, there is a hotel coming to Union Avenue at the site of what is now a Getty Station and in the middle of one of the hottest development strips in all of Williamsburg. There are many buildings going up there on Union Avenue, including a huge and steamy Hot Karl. Now, a new hotel is planned for the current location of a Getty Gas station in from of the Hot Karl and across the street from the planned Gateway to Williamsburg and our favorite 24-hour, newly reopened eat greasy food after a night of heavy drinking and ironcially projectile vomit spot, Kellogg’s Diner. The application was filed Wednesday and we reported the exclusive on Curbed. The new hotel will be six stories tall and have 54 rooms. It’s being designed by Thomas Gilman Architects, the firm behind the big glass tower in Prospect-Lefferts Garden. Call the new place Hotel Getty or to predict they’ll have room service from Kellogg’s or Dumont? We’d be skeptical about new hotels at this point, but we think this is one that could work out quite well given the location.
