On the eve of its 120th anniversary, the St. Regis New York considers what remains sacred, what must change, and what it takes to make an idea important and inviting for its next century. Host Jenni Benzaquen, Marriott Senior Vice President and Global Brand Leader, welcomes hospitality and bartending visionary Jim Meehan to discuss the rise and cultural significance of a St. Regis signature, the Bloody Mary, and designers Alexandra Champalimaud and Courtney Brannan join the show to share behind the scenes details about their research and work renovating the St. Regis New York’s public spaces, including the iconic King Cole Bar. Author Thessaly La Force concludes our season with her original elevator story.
