The New Standard In Exhibitionism?
So this decidedly hip boutique hotel The Standard was built straddling NYC’s High Line park in such a manner that the “337 rooms framed by huge, non-reflective glass windows” have become a stage of sorts — a popular stage for randy exhibitionists to exhibit their various sexual fantasies to the people walking the High Line below them. The flashing first was exposed in a Post article last summer. The tabloid posted a series of photos called Peep Show at the Standard Hotel and the hotel’s official blog even solicited amateur erotic pictures shot at the hotel in a post titled “Cum on over!”
But has the tide turned on the Standard’s sexual ? Because of a house rule prohibiting more than three guests per room, the website Palagia — an organizer of swingers parties in NYC — recently was rejected when it trying to book a room for a bash at the Standard. “It’s insane. Why not? My guests would love to be seen having sex,” Palagia recently told Page Six. A rep for the hotel called the incident a misunderstanding.
