Hotel Attraction was a proposed project by architect Antoni Gaudí, for a skyscraper in New York City.
The project was commissioned in May 1908. Planned at a total height of 360 metres, it was probably unrealistic for its time. Little is known about its origin, and the project remained unknown until 1956, when a report by Joan Matamala i Flotats was published, called "When the New World called Gaudí".
The drawings for the Attraction Hotel had been proposed as basis for the rebuilding of the Ground Zero of Manhattan.
