Founded in 2014, hotelier, Jason Pomeranc along with his brothers, Michael, and Lawrence came together to create a next brand, SIXTY Collective, following the sale of the group's interests in Commune Hotels & Resorts and Thompson Hotels.

The opening of 60 Thompson inspired the creation of Thompson Hotels, an award-winning brand that garnered international recognition and acclaim.

He served as co-chair of Commune for two years, where he grew the portfolio to over 55 hotels, before selling the Thompson brand to Commune in August 2013. One year later, the Pomeranc brothers create a fresh concept, SIXTY Hotels, with a portfolio of luxury lodgings throughout New York City and Los Angeles.
