Convene Hospitality Group has opened a new event venue called Convene 555 Broadway in New York City's SoHo neighborhood. The space occupies 32,000 square feet on the second floor of the ten-story Scholastic Building at the intersection of Prince and Spring Streets.
Convene 555 Broadway features seven distinct meeting and event areas, including a main reception hall, breakout rooms, a boardroom, and flexible galleries suitable for product demonstrations, creative workshops, and social gatherings. Designed in partnership with Marlo + Kroft, the interior combines raw materials such as concrete and wood with clean geometric forms and bold contrasting colors. Structural columns are wrapped in brick red trim that echoes the original facade by architect Aldo Rossi. High ceilings, substantial windows, and exposed beams and concrete floors create a loft-like atmosphere that pays homage to SoHo's artist studio heritage.
