NYFE Summary

Thick masonry partitions helped make the hotel popular with musicians. Residents included Enrico Caruso, Igor Stravinsky and Arturo Toscanini.

Recessed courts brought light and air into the large building. Metal balconies run across its pale walls, while rounded corner towers rise toward the tall, curved roof.
