CONVENE HOSPITALITY GROUP UNVEILS NEWEST SOHO FLAGSHIP

32,000-Square-Foot Convene Event Venue Now Open at 555 Broadway

NEW YORK, April 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Convene Hospitality Group (CHG), the leading hospitality brand of lifestyle meeting, event, and workspace venues, officially opens its doors today at Convene 555 Broadway. Housed in the 10-story Scholastic Building with an entrance between Prince and Spring Streets, the venue was designed in partnership with boutique design studio, Marlo + Kroft, to serve as a premier event destination in the heart of SoHo.

Now open and accepting bookings, Convene 555 Broadway encompasses 32,000 square feet of dynamic brandable spaces modeled after the neighborhood's artist lofts and galleries. Spanning the building's second floor, the venue features seven uniquely designed meeting and event spaces including a main reception hall, personality-forward breakout rooms, a hero boardroom, and flexible galleries for product demos, creative workshops, and social gatherings.

"The opening of Convene 555 Broadway is a significant milestone in our journey, marking our 16th location in the city where it all began. New York is our hometown, and there's no neighborhood that captures the intersection of heritage and innovation quite like SoHo," said Ryan Simonetti, President and CEO of CHG. "As we grow, we're meeting the demand for commercial real estate to flex as lifestyle destinations for connection, creativity, and culture."

NEOCLASSICAL MODERN ARCHITECTURE
Crafted with Marlo + Kroft, the interior design channels contemporary elements of Neoclassical Modernism anchored by a timeless atmosphere that pays homage to the building's literary legacy. Raw materials such as concrete and wood are balanced with clean geometric forms and bold contrasting colors. Striking design details include structural columns draped in the exterior facade's notable brick red trim, a nod to the signature visual language of the building's original architect, Aldo Rossi.

LOFT-INSPIRED ROOMS & SPACES
Inspired by SoHo's airy artist lofts, the venue is characterized by high ceilings, substantial windows and spacious open floor plans, anchored with natural light. Exposed brick, beams and concrete floors provide a grounding juxtaposition with vintage architectural details that evoke the craftsmanship of bookmaking. Layered lighting and modern furnishings add depth and dimension, reflecting a cohesive modern loft aesthetic designed to inspire creativity.
