Has Hotel Toshi Vacated 280 Mulberry Street?

After checking in with Hotel Toshi yesterday regarding their status at 280 Mulberry Street, asking if they had vacated the building July 3rd as previously intended, a representative emailed back, writing: "Absolutely. We've already vacated the entire building."  

I've tried to confirm this with the landlord and a tenant, and have not heard back from either. Rooms at 280 Mulberry Street are still listed as available on Hotel Toshi's website.

Any readers out there know more??

That date came and went and Hotel Toshi was still in business at 280 Mulberry Street.
