Pakistan aims for a valuation of over $1 billion for the Roosevelt Hotel in New York and is looking for a redevelopment partner. The government plans to retain ownership through an equity partnership and is adopting a joint venture model to maximize long-term value.
The century-old hotel, acquired by Pakistan in 2000, was closed in 2020 due to losses and briefly operated as a migrant shelter. The government approved a transaction structure for the hotel as part of a $7 billion IMF-backed privatization initiative.
JLL will oversee the partner selection process, with the government eyeing a valuation of over $1 billion for the property. The redevelopment is expected to focus on residential-cum-office use and could take 4–5 years to complete.
The process is set to be finalized in the next six to nine months, with an initial payment of $100 million expected from the joint-venture partnership by June 2026. Interest in the project is said to be very high.
