The 36 Most Anticipated Hotel Openings of 2021

The Industrialist, Pittsburgh

The famed 18-story Arrott Building will reveal an upgrade when it opens this spring as the Industrialist, an Autograph Collection hotel, revived by New York firm Stonehill Taylor. The Rebel Room restaurant and the second-floor salon and library enjoy a reimagined midcentury aesthetic that nods to the Rust Belt city’s former life as the center of the steel industry (think smoky hues and molten metal accents). The 124 guestrooms, too, recall Pittsburgh’s roots with a monochromatic color palette, raw materials, and ambient lighting that effortlessly transport guests to the city’s early-20th-century heyday.
