Robert DeNiro Testifies In Dispute Over NYC Hotel

Robert De Niro calls it a "labor of love" -- a $43 million hotel in downtown Manhattan that features a handmade brick exterior, Carrara marble bathtubs and a luxurious penthouse.

But the penthouse has raised the hackles of preservationists who say the actor flouted the rules with the top-floor suite.

The penthouse atop the seven-story hotel does not match the design that the New York Landmarks Preservation Commission approved in 2004, and the panel held a hearing Tuesday on whether De Niro and his partners should remove the rooftop suite -- at an estimated cost of $1.5 million -- and start over.
