The Real Deal New York

From the November issue: When Fashion 26 opens its doors this December, one young hotelier may
have white knuckles: The spot is the first that Steven Kassin, the
24-year-old Infinity Group principal, has led from start to finish.
“It’s my baby,” Kassin said of the Garment District hotel at 152
West 26th Street, on the corner of Seventh Avenue. “I’m young and I
can’t afford to mess up.”
Kassin, who’s been working with the Infinity Group since graduating
with his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from New York University at
age 20, is heading up the $90 million project, in partnership with CPI,
Citigroup’s real estate private equity group. Rooms start at $275 per
night.
