New York 'naked' peep-show hotel

[nick]

Some are describing it as a skyscraper peep show. At The Standard Hotel in downtown Manhattan guests are doing a lot more than just sightseeing.

Every day, crowds gather in the newly built Highline park which sits underneath the hotel. Many eagerly wait to catch a glimpse of the naked people in the gigantic floor to ceiling windows.

According to reports and witnesses, men and women have been posing nude for passers-by to see.

Whether it's wiping their bodies after a shower, or changing their clothes, the views have been drawing huge amounts of attention.

"And would you like a curtained or non-curtained room, sir?"

"What's the difference?"

"Curtains are an additional $50/night."

"I'll take non-curtained."

:P

Haha. The rooms have curtains, it's just that the hotel-goers don't necessarily realize that the park provides such a nice view even of the higher-up windows. If they can't either close the blinds or just not stand too close to the windows while they're naked, I suppose they're fair game to any "sightseers" standing around...

I don't know, though; as long as no one snapped a pic with their cell phone or anything I could think of some fun things to do in a room like that... *writes down the name of the hotel for future reference* xPPP

I spend a weekend in Niagra Falls, the hotel there had floor to ceiling windows; but there was no one to see anything you did... unless you had a telescope from the other side of the falls.

[Modus Operandi]

Ha, thats kinda funny.

That would happen in New York.
