The Waldorf-Astoria closed the doors to its historic #hotel in 2017

The Waldorf-Astoria closed the doors to its historic #hotel in 2017 for a huge renovation project that will eventually create larger rooms and add a new set of luxury condos. But before it closed, we had a chance to photograph its interior with its 1931 Art Deco spaces. After the renovation plan was announced by its new owners, thankfully the Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the first three floors as an interior landmark. Sadly not included in the landmarked spaces is the Starlight Lounge and its gorgeous hallway on the 19th floor (photo).
