Hiki paha ke hāpai i ka Hōkele ʻEhā ma Nu Ioka ua hoʻololi ʻia i hale ʻoihana lapaʻau e hakakā ana i ka coronavirus? I ka hopena o Malaki, ua hoʻomaka ka hōkele ʻelima mau hōkū ʻo Four Seasons Hotel ma East 57th Street e ʻae i nā limahana o ka haukapila e hana ana ma waena o Manhattan.
ʻO kēia hōkele i hoʻolālā ʻia ʻo IM Pei ʻo ia ka hōkele ʻoi loa e kamaʻilio nui ʻia e pili ana i New York i ka wā i wehe ʻia ai i ka makahiki 1993 me ke kumu kūʻai $ 1 miliona no kēlā me kēia lumi. ʻO kēia hale 52-lumi, kahi lumi 367 me kona keʻena pāpale limestone, 33-foot-high onyx ceiling, nā pale paia aniani a me nā kiʻi kumu i hāʻawi ʻia i ka hanohano a me ka hanohano i ʻike koke ʻia.
Ma Iune 27, 1993, i ka a New York Times ʻO Architecture View, ʻo Paul Goldberger i kākau:
“…. Māhele nā lumi hoʻokipa i nā ʻano o nā keʻena lehulehu akā hana ʻia i loko o kahi ʻano lusher, palupalu o kēia wā. Hōʻike lākou i kahi loli nui no ke kaulahao ʻEhā Kau, ka mea i manaʻoʻiʻo i ka nani o kahi keʻena hōkele ma kahi kūlike i ka nui o nā lako Pelekane hoʻohālike i loaʻa i loko. Eia, aia kahi urbane modernism, sophisticated me ka ʻole anuanu āpau ...
A loaʻa iā mākou i ka mea nui o kēia hale, ʻo ia ka mea kupanaha e hoʻohui i ka aura o kahi hōkele nui me ka pili o kahi mea liʻiliʻi. Hoʻouna mai ka hale hoʻolālā o kēia hōkele iā mākou i nā hōʻailona āpau he hōkele nui ia, mai ka pā nui o ka puka nui a hiki i ke kiʻi kālai ʻia o ka hale kiaʻi kiʻekiʻe ma ka lewa lani. ʻAʻohe home ʻoluʻolu ma ka Four Seasons Hotel, ʻaʻohe hoʻāʻo coy, e like me nā hōkele waiwai he nui loa, e kuhi ai he hale hale nani wale kēia e loaʻa ana kahi pākaukau hoʻokolokolo. ʻAʻole, he wahi lehulehu kēia. A i ke au e aneane pau ana nā hōkele hoʻokipa hou e like me ka pau ʻana o ka homeity, kahi hōkele e hōʻike iā ia iho me he alo shimmering a urbane kahi mea nui e hiki mai ana ma New York. "
"ʻAʻole kēia he hōkele hou," wahi a Kauka Robert Quigley, ka pelekikena poʻokela poʻokela a me ke alakaʻi lapaʻau no International SOS, kahi ʻoihana olakino a me nā ʻoihana huakaʻi e kiaʻi nei i nā kaohi hou o ka hōkele. "He hale ia no kahi heluna makaʻu nui."
ʻO nā kau ʻehā, e like me ke kokoke ʻana o Central Park a me ka USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center ma Flushing, ʻo Kuini kahi inoa ʻāina ʻē aʻe e kiʻi hou ʻia e kaua i ka maʻi ahulau. ʻOiai ke kōkua nei nā hōkele ʻē aʻe i ke kūlanakauhale me ka holo nui ʻana o kahi moena haukapila, hoʻolaʻa wale ʻia ʻo Four Seasons Hotel iā ia iho no ka mālama pono ʻana i nā kauka, nā kahu hānai a me nā loea ʻē aʻe.
Ma ka puka komo ma ke alanui 57th, ʻelua mau kahu hānai, e kau ana i nā makakiʻi N95, e lawe i ka mahana o nā malihini a pau, e nīnau ana i nā nīnau e pili ana i nā hōʻailona ma nā hola he 72 i hala a inā ua holoi lākou i ko lākou mau lima Ke komo i loko, hele pololei nā malihini i ko lākou lumi; ʻaʻohe pā a hale ʻaina paha. Hāpai nā hāpai kiʻekiʻe i hoʻokahi ohua i ka manawa like; pono nā mea ʻē aʻe ma ka lipine Xs ma ka papahele, kau ʻia i ʻeono kapuaʻi ma kahi kaʻawale. ʻO nā lumi ʻo 368 o ka hōkele, 225 wale nō ka poʻe i kipa ʻia e kaohi i ka lehulehu.
ʻAʻole pili hou nā limahana o ka poʻe kipa a me nā hōkele. No ka nānā ʻana, hoʻonoho ʻia nā kī i nā envelopes ma kahi pākaukau. Ua wehe ʻia nā minibars mai nā lumi hoʻokipa. ʻO ka mālama hale kahi ʻoluʻolu o ka wā i hala; hāʻawi ʻia i nā lumi me nā lilina keu a me nā kāwele. Hōʻiliʻili ʻia nā mea ʻino ma hope o nā malihini, e noho ana no ka liʻiliʻi o ʻehiku mau lā, e nānā i nā fumigated o ko lākou mau lumi. ʻAʻohe o nā moena i nā uluna hoʻonaninani e hiki ke hoʻolaha i nā g germ. Ma kēlā me kēia pō e loaʻa kahi ʻōmole hoʻomaʻemaʻe ma kahi o kahi ʻāpana kokoleka.
ʻO ka manaʻo e hoʻolilo i nā kau ʻehā ka manaʻo o ka mea nāna ʻo Ty Warner. I kekahi mau lā, ua kōkua ka Luna Nui ʻo Rudy Tauscher i kahi kime hou e hoʻolālā i kahi noho pilikia i kekahi mau lā me ka hoʻolālā hou a me nā hana. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Elizabeth Ortiz, ka luna o ka hōkele i nā kāhea o kēlā me kēia lā a puni e hōʻoia i kēlā me kēia limahana e hana Ok a ke manaʻo nei Ok. Akā me ka hoʻolālā pono ʻole, ʻaʻole mākaukau ka hōkele no ka mea i hana ma hope o ke kūkala ʻana o ke kiaʻāina ʻo Andrew Cuomo lāua ʻo Mr. Warner e wehe hou ʻia ka Four Seasons Hotel no nā kauka lapaʻau. Ua hōʻuluʻulu nā kauka a me nā kahu hānai he nui i nā laina kelepona. "Ua hoka loa i nā ʻōnaehana maʻamau ma kahi" wahi a Gray Scandaglia, ka loio a Mr. Warner. Ma hope o ka huikau mua, ke hana pū nei ka hōkele me nā haukapila ʻo New York a me nā hui olakino e like me ka New York State Nurses Association, nā mea e mālama nei i nā noi mālama i loko.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kauka Quigley e hiki i nā waiwai hakahaka ke ukali ma hope o ke ʻano o ka hōkele ʻo Four Seasons. "Ua loaʻa iaʻu nā kelepona he nui mai nā hōkele he nui a puni kēia ʻāina a me ka honua e hoʻohālikelike i kā mākou hana," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. "I kēia manawa he pae palena ko mākou."

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- And in an age when almost every new luxury hotel seems to be parading domesticity, a hotel that presents itself as a shimmering and urbane presence is a great thing to happens to New York.
- They represent a big change for the Four Seasons chain, which has tended to believe that the elegance of a hotel room is in direct proportion to the amount of imitation English furniture it contains.
- And that gets us to the essential fact of this building, which is how wonderfully it combines the aura of a major hotel with the intimacy of a small one.
