You Can Now Live In The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria
Last week, the iconic Waldorf Astoria New York launched the sales of the building’s condominium residences, The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria. The celebrated New York City landmark will introduce an unprecedented residential lifestyle to the heart of Midtown Manhattan, offering residents a world of exclusive private amenities along with special access to the best in-class services found only at the globally-renowned Waldorf Astoria New York.
The Waldorf Astoria has been a beacon of timeless glamour and luxury for nearly a century—home to Hollywood’s elite, host to countless world leaders, and the site of cultural events and galas that hold a special place in the hearts of New Yorkers and visitors from around the world. When the Waldorf Astoria opened on Park Avenue to rapturous reviews in 1931, it was the largest and tallest hotel in the world and is currently New York City’s largest privately-owned landmark.
Now, with residences for sale for the first time, buyers from New York and all over the world can call it home.” The sophisticated residential interiors and amenities by internationally renowned designer Jean-Louis Deniot, the visionary behind some of the world’s most opulent private homes, create a truly modern experience within the building’s historic framework.
Because of the generous scale of the property, residents will enjoy the highest number of service staff of any super-luxury residential building in New York, including a dedicated onsite concierge. One of the most unique features of the residences at The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria is the concierge closet, which is integrated into the design of the entryway in every home. The closet is used for the secure and private delivery of packages, laundry, and room service, and is accessible from both the common corridor as well as inside of the home. Residents will have exclusive access to over 50,000 square feet of private residential amenities, ranging from health and wellness to entertaining and business spaces, all brilliantly designed by Jean-Louis Deniot.
Waldorf Astoria New York set the standard and defined hotel service at an ultra-luxury level, and future residents of the condominiums will enjoy priority access to the unrivaled services of the hotel, including signing privileges at restaurants and bars, preferred pricing, and a la carte services like housekeeping and 24-hour in-residence dining. In addition to the 50,000 square feet of private residential amenities, residents will also have access to 100,000 square feet of amenities at Waldorf Astoria New York, including the hotel’s restored landmarked heritage spaces, spa, restaurant and bars. “Waldorf Astoria New York is our flagship and origin story, and we look forward to reopening its doors to welcome guests to the iconic landmark which is integral to the fabric of our brand as well as New York,” said Dino Michael, global head of Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts. “We are thrilled to offer a new residential component to the hotel, which will inevitably infuse a new life and spirit to the space and inspire us to bring our iconic ‘True Waldorf Service’ to the next level for residents.”
Douglas Elliman Development Marketing is the exclusive marketing and sales agent. “This will be an exciting opportunity for buyers to own a piece of New York City history. We aren’t just selling extraordinarily beautiful residences, amenities and services; we're offering the opportunity to buy into a legacy that can never again be duplicated,” said Dan Tubb, Senior Director of Sales at The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria. “There is no more glamorous residential lifestyle in New York City, and we are very excited about bringing The Towers to the market after receiving thousands of inquiries from as close as Park Avenue to the far corners of the world.”
