WASHINGTON HEIGHTS, NY — No color was left behind in the creation of Washington Height's newest hotel.

Dubbed the 'Lego' Hotel, but actually named Radio Hotel, the very noticeable new addition to the uptown neighborhood had its soft opening on Monday.

Made out of a collection of green, yellow, blue, orange, red and purple bricks, the hotel stands out like a splash of color in an otherwise black-and-white film.

While much has been made of the outside of the building, less has been known about what the inside looks like.

Patch was able to get access to a collection of photos of the inside of the hotel — and let's just say — it doesn't lack any color either.
