In pratica
Meaningful Materials
We designed 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge to align with Brooklyn’s values, partnering with local artists to incorporate Brooklyn-made furnishings and local materials. Throughout the sanctuary, you’ll find repurposed shipping pallets, furniture made with reclaimed wood from the Domino Sugar Factory, and glass from a Brooklyn-based glass blowing studio. Our design ethos remains true to the history of Brooklyn, nodding to its influential role in the evolution of manufacturing, honoring the influence of the Navy Shipyard, and appreciating all the packing and shipping that used to take place in this space.
Nature as Art
From the 25-foot green wall in the lobby lounge to the “Waterline” murals in select guestrooms that pay tribute to the rebuilding efforts after Hurricane Sandy, the incredible art throughout 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge reminds us of the beauty and power of nature while honoring the city’s rich history and culture. Many of the featured artists are New York natives, sharing their unique perspectives through mindful materials and inspired designs.

La buona energia è energia pulita

Water Management and Stewardship
On the roof of this urban oasis, you’ll find a special rainwater collection system that transports water to our underground tank. We donate this water to the park for sustainable irrigation. For our on-site landscaping, we use irrigation systems controlled by timers and weather-based data. Throughout the sanctuary, we also utilize low-flow fixtures, real-time monitoring, and a base-building filtration system to provide you with high-quality (LEED*) filtered drinking water.

Through our amazing partnerships with local non-profits such as Housing Works, Too Good to Go, Billion Oyster Project, and beyond—we take pride in uplifting the vibrant community of Brooklyn through our charitable initiatives. From healthy waters to equitable food systems, we take a holistic, open-minded, and hands-on approach to generating positive change in the community.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We set a goal to increase Black representation in leadership to 15% and female representation in leadership to 50% by 2024. At the end of 2022, we’ve already reached 10% BIPOC representation and 43% female representation. We can’t wait to continue to build diverse, well-rounded teams.
