Convene Hospitality Group (CHG) has announced a new, independently branded special events venue at NYC landmark Terminal Warehouse – The Mallory. The launch of an independent venue built to serve social events, galas, award ceremonies, weddings, and more, is the next phase in CHG’s mission to serve the full spectrum of the events industry.
Spanning over 50,000 square-feet across three floors in West Chelsea, The Mallory will offer versatile event space highlighted by refined architectural details including exposed brick, arched windows, boxcar doors, and timber beams. The venue will also serve as a bespoke conferencing centre and lounge for employees of the building’s tenants, slated to open Q2 2026.
“The Mallory at Terminal Warehouse was born out of the opportunity to more adeptly serve the experiential events industry in New York – and do it better than anyone else in the market,” said Ryan Simonetti, president and CEO of CHG. “Large-scale social, cultural, and experiential events are the lifeforce of the city; having spent the last 16 years honing the operational prowess to run complex hospitality-led venues, we’re elevating our offering and expanding our brand set to provide a premier destination to bring bespoke experiences to life.”
Over the past two years, the events industry has witnessed a 165% increase in demand for meeting planners seeking unique venues; The Mallory as an independent venue allows CHG to meet this growing market need while also providing opportunities to Terminal Warehouse’s tenants.
Located in the northwest corner of the building and accessed via Terminal Warehouse’s iconic tunnel, The Mallory will offer customised spaces able to accommodate up to 550 guests. The venue comprises a reception lounge with 25-foot bar, grand event hall with 19-foot ceilings, VIP green room suites, and gallery space with movable walls.
Thee will be an on-site commercial-grade catering kitchen, production rigging and motorised truss, and built-in technology infrastructure including theatrical lighting, flexible 4K projection, and a custom designed point-source speaker system. The venue name is a nod to George Mallory, the original architect of the historic 1890s building.
Columbia Property Trust Executive vice-president and head of real estate Ted Koltis said: “We are pleased to partner with CHG on a conference, meeting, and events venue that will be every bit as iconic as the building itself.”
CHG is the largest single provider of non-hotel meeting and event venues in the US and UK and has a growing footprint of flexible office space. With the addition of The Mallory, it has a network of 39 locations spanning nine cities.
