Appears to be in renovations for a couple of years. It's an iconic place, the Waldorf. Check out it's history here: New York City's most iconic hotel

Here's a ditty from a great great swing band that I'm a fan of:

My uncle was a bell captain thee his entire working years. he met my aunt (she was a cigarette girl) there. He worked the towers and many a world leader and celebrity knew him by first name. When I was a young man, I would enjoy going there to say hello before meeting clients at the Bull and Bear. I loved that big Irishman uncle of mine.

He passed away two years ago. Seems only fit the Hotel would close now as well.

Well, it looks like it took longer than expected. Sorry to keep you all in suspense.
