Zelig Weiss, co-developer of The William Vale hotel, is reportedly squatting in a suite after Eos Hospitality purchased the hotel in June 2024. Weiss allegedly refused to vacate despite requests from Eos, which is pursuing eviction and a bill potentially exceeding $200,000. The hotel has a complicated history, including Weiss’s legal issues with his former partner Yoel Goldman. After various financial disputes, Weiss lost the hotel and attempted further purchases before finally ceasing efforts in late 2023.
Eos is hoping a judge will evict Weiss and make him pay his bill - which could be more than $200,000 according to current pricing.
Weiss has refused to leave a suite in the Williamsburg hotel despite several requests to vacate from the new owner, Eos Hospitality.
The William Vale, which opened on North 12th Street in 2016, has quite a messy record.
Eos' purchase of the hotel in June 2024, for a sum of around $177 million, followed years of legal battles between Weiss and his former partner.
