Could It Be? Thompson LES Still on Track for July 15

Where: 190 Allen St. [map], New York, NY, United States

Could the Thompson LES actually pull it off? We're less than six weeks from a reported July 15 open, and East Village Podcasts has the latest report from downtown:

The constructionaires at Thompson LES finally covered most of the insulation on the north side of the new hotel. Are $450 hotel rooms nearly available?

Maybe! And at a discount, too. We've mentioned Quikbook as a way to score good deals on Thompson Hotels, but this time it's the hotel itself offering 'em up.

A search for July 15 turns up a standard room for $299 plus taxes, while a "King Studio" goes for $339+. That's better than Quikbook's offer of $359. Though who knows if the hotel will, you know, actually be open when you arrive.
