AKA has a total of 11 properties across New York City; Beverly Hills; Philadelphia; Washington, DC; and London, in addition to a new location it recently opened near Wall Street.

"We got excited about what was happening downtown with Brookfield Place and all these restaurants, so we knew it was an up-and-coming neighborhood and we wanted to be part of recreating its urban downtown," Larry Korman, AKA's founder and president, said to Business Insider.
AKA is the product of four generations of the Korman family, including Korman's father, who began building flexible-lease apartments in Philadelphia in the '60s. Since then, AKA, which is run by Korman Communities, has become a go-to accommodation for celebrities, business travelers, and creative types.
