Aloft Hotel at 49-53 Ann St in New York’s downtown financial district features two of BHI’s premiere elevators. Designed along with Nobutaka Ashihara Architects, these cabs feature rich fabrics and a cool blue cathode cove lighting that compliments the luxurious decor of this new hotel.

Nobutaka Ashihara Architects is known for precise, modern design across New York City. As a result, projects demand careful coordination between architecture and building systems.

BHI Elevators supports this process through integrated elevator planning and installation. Additionally, the team works closely with design teams to align vertical transportation with architectural intent.

However, architectural projects in NYC often present tight structural constraints. Therefore, elevator systems must fit within limited shafts while maintaining performance and safety standards.

BHI addresses these challenges through early-stage coordination. The team reviews layout requirements and adjusts system design accordingly. This ensures smooth integration within the building framework.

Meanwhile, elevator performance must match the architectural vision. For example, ride quality, leveling precision, and system quietness all contribute to the finished space experience.

Additionally, coordination between engineering and design reduces conflicts during construction. As a result, installation proceeds more efficiently and with fewer delays.

BHI continues to support architects and developers across New York City. Therefore, the team prioritizes collaboration, technical accuracy, and long-term system reliability in every project.
