Pearl Box Townhouse spans three thoughtfully designed floors: a ground-level private dining room and two upper levels housing our retro-inspired cocktail bar. Each floor has its own energy and character, and they can be used separately or combined to create a dynamic flow and increase guest capacity. The space was brought to life by NYC design icons Fabiana Faria and Helena Barquet, the creative minds behind Coming Soon NYC, known for their playful yet refined aesthetic. Imagine a cocktail party across the top two floors followed by an intimate seated dinner downstairs, or start the night with a feast before heading upstairs for a full-blown dance party (yes, our license goes until 1:00AM).

Host your wedding or next event at the historic Prince George Ballroom! The sleek, industrial chic Gallery entrance, which is perfect for cocktail hours, blends modernism with the ornate, art deco elements of the main Ballroom. This unique space is sure to stun all of your guests with its immense grandeur. Built in 1904 with an addition in 1912, The Prince George Hotel was a key fixture in the vibrant Madison Square neighborhood. The hotel was designed by architect Howard Greenley in the Beaux Arts style, and had many classical and Neo-Renaissance flourishes. In 1996, Breaking Ground acquired The Prince George Hotel, and with the help of government agencies and corporate partners, transformed the building into permanent supportive housing for homeless and low-income single adults. In 2015, the Prince George Ballroom in Manhattan's now Flatiron district, underwent a major renovation, modernizing the historic space while maintaining its original features. In addition to having a beautiful event, clients are supporting a great cause. Proceeds from the ballroom events support the non-profit Breaking Ground's housing development and outreach programs for homeless and other vulnerable New Yorkers.

We have so much to offer including unique art and decor, a vibey lounge area and a breathtaking custom designed 1000sf backyard. You thought that just because Mercury was in retrograde you weren’t due for a happy accident. You thought stomping around the city midsummer was only hot smoke and perspiration. Maybe you’re dreaming, maybe it’s a mirage, maybe the gummies finally kicked in, but you’ve fallen into the cosmic swirl. A cool slice of delight in the steaming metropolis. A portal. Here, every glitch is kismet. Here, every mishap shimmers with pleasure. The walls are dripping but they never melt, the scent is ambrosia – impossibly sweet. And just when you think you can taste it, you see it: a myriad of colors set before your eyes. As soon as you can dream the flavors they appear, conjured like the muses and heaped in a cone. You did that. You aligned with confection. It’s not a dream, it’s just the consequence of dreaming. It’s not a mirage, it’s just the little miracle of summer. Gelato, obviously.
