I recently overheard a fabulous conversation in which a writer was inquiring with one of the interior designers of The Stoneleigh as to any aspects that made the hotel “green”. Instead of the usual answer encompassing various conservation policies or recycled items/programs within the hotel, the designer elequently noted ”The entire Stoneleigh Project as a whole is  green, as the owners and investors opted to preserve and enhance the existing structure instead of dismantling the hotel and hauling it off”.

The Stoneleigh Project speaks not only to the ever growing ecological conern we see crisscrossing the news daily,  but it also harps upon the spectacular sense of history and culture not easily duplicated in hotels today.
