Here’s the new Hotel Chelsea business card.  I guess it’s supposed to represent the sign on the façade of the building, but it really looks more like a tombstone to me. (The actual sign is of course not shaped like an oblisk.) It’s a fitting epitaph for the death of culture in New York.  But after all this is only wishful thinking on the part of BD Hotels because we’re all still alive and kicking here at the Chelsea Hotel.  It will take more than a poorly designed business card to finish us off.

Below is the old Hotel Chelsea business card, basic, but at least a bit classier than the new one.
