What a gorgeous building! My in-laws honeymooned there for two weeks in 1941, right before he shipped off to WWII. He bid her farewell at the hotel, and asked that she not accompany him to the train station. Fortunately, he returned home safely. They spent 40+ years together!

Sincerely Eccentric i mean...... It is literally right next to the park. If people are staying there, as guests, it’s Bc they’re visiting and doing s bunch of stuff including going for walks and jogs in the park. If they live there in the 63 million dollar apartments, they’re gonna be casual sometimes. I understand what you’re saying. Whenever I’m in the general vicinity of the plaza, I’m usually more dressed up. But that’s because if I’m there it’s because I’m going to some event or a dinner or even just a movie at the Paris and I specifically like to always dress up.

I was curious as to why Alfred Gwynn Vanderbilt wanted to stay at the Plaza, so I looked it up. His parents lived right across from the Plaza in the largest house ever built in New York. Even though his parents' home had 154 rooms, Alfred liked the idea that he could see his parents whenever he wanted, but he could also get away from them when he'd had enough of them.

A twist is ours being an open marriage so it also keeps things from being awkward for our respective partners though everyone's on the same page about our situation.

Glorious! Such memories! In the summer of 1996 we walked into the Plaza lobby off Central Park pushing our just one year old daughter in a stroller. Such an overwhelming sense of history. She freaked out passersby because she hadn't any hair yet, but she was able to talk to people as we went by. In May of 1999 we toured Versailles with our now ~4yr old and 14 month children and saw the some of the architectural inspirations for the Plaza I believe some of the opening scenes from North by Northwest with Cary Grant take place in the Plaza Hotel and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade passes right by the Plaza entrance. Iconic indeed! Thanks for the history of the Plaza Hotel.

I agree with what someone else said here, the Plaza is no place for scuffy jeans, dirty sneakers, backwards baseball hats and hard hats! Show some class! Dress elegantly when in an elegant place!

Thanks so much for the video. I grew up in NY and passed by and through this hotel daily back in the 70's and 80's (a tough time for the hotel) but I never had much time to look around and never had occasion to stay there. The history is fascinating.

Excellent! Very well done. Beautiful old work of art whose importance was added to by the many who lived or stayed there.

I’ve been there hundreds of times but never stayed as a guest. I’m a professional pastry chef, I just deliver (and set up) wedding cakes then leave. 🥺

Just Deliver and Set Up??? Nothing just or ordinary about that for without you there would be no grand events!!

Thank you. Possibly the most famous Hotel in the World! Such history; such cultural significance! I delight in it! I do have to say that I long for the days when guests of such a fine hotel DRESSED in a manner to reflect their surroundings. I get it; people want to be modern and ‘comfortable’; BUT there is a difference between being ‘comfortable’ and looking like a slob. One CAN dress comfortably, and not look sloppy.

Besides The Great Gatsby, Home Alone and Eloise, the hotel is also featured in another work of fiction the Hitchcock classic North by Northwest. Great post. Do The Racquet and Tennis club, the private club on Fifth Avenue designed by Stanford White. The interiors are amazing.

I think it’s a terrible shame that the plaza was turned into a residential building. It was such a wonderful living thing with thousands of employees. Now, the people who call it home don’t even spend much time there so the hotel feels very empty. I’ve stayed in the new hotel several times, even though I live a few blocks away, because I love the hotel so much. The Waldorf is also being turned into a residential building so that too will never be the same.
