"Part of an art-focused hotel group, this adaptive reuse of a former YMCA devotes more than 14,000 square feet to museum exhibition space that’s open to the public, with rotating shows and permanent works by local artists. The hotel hosts public events and site-specific installations—including a notable 20,000-pound water-filled orb by Serkan Özkaya—making it a cultural anchor in downtown revitalization efforts." - Jennifer Flowers, Kathryn Romeyn
