Waldorf–Astoria

1893 – 1929

The Waldorf-Astoria was a hotel on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York City, built in 1893 and razed in 1929. It originated as two hotels, built side by side by feuding relatives, was expanded in 1897, and razed to make way for construction of the Empire State Building. Their successor, the current Waldorf Astoria New York, was built on Park Avenue in 1931.
