Overview of The Plaza at 1 Central Park South

The Plaza Hotel and Residences, located at 768 Fifth Avenue and 1 Central Park South, is an iconic blend of luxury hospitality and upscale living. Designed in French Renaissance chateau style by Henry Janeway Hardenbergh in 1907, The Plaza offers an unmatched New York experience, steps from Central Park, Pulitzer Fountain, and renowned landmarks like Carnegie Hall, MoMA, and the Wollman Rink.

The building’s distinctive exterior features a white marble base, turreted corners, and a mansard roof adorned with finials and flagpoles, adding to its Old World charm. The Plaza’s interior includes 282 hotel rooms and 181 private residences, with the latter housed in the building's north and east wings. The residences feature high ceilings, period moldings, walnut-bordered herringbone parquet floors, and kitchens equipped with stone countertops and mosaic marble backsplashes. Many units boast views of Central Park, Fifth Avenue, and the surrounding cityscape, with some offering terraces and unique turreted windows.

Residents enjoy exclusive access to hotel amenities, including the famed Palm Court restaurant, Caudalie Vinotherapie Spa, Warren-Tricomi Salon, and a state-of-the-art La Palestra fitness center. A dedicated staff provides round-the-clock concierge, doorman, butler, and nanny services, along with housekeeping, turn-down service, and limousine arrangements. Additionally, residents have access to a private European-style garden with cascading water features, a rooftop deck, and pet-friendly policies.

Situated on the doorstep of Central Park, The Plaza is encircled by premier shopping and dining options and is conveniently close to several subway lines, making it easily accessible from all parts of Manhattan. The lively surroundings of the Meatpacking District, Lincoln Center, and high-end boutiques along Fifth Avenue cater to a cosmopolitan lifestyle.

Throughout its history, The Plaza has hosted distinguished guests and memorable events, such as Truman Capote's Black-and-White Ball. Celebrities and public figures have frequented the Oak Bar, a setting famously depicted in "North by Northwest." The building was partially converted to condominiums in 2008 under El Ad Properties, preserving its landmarked exterior and spectacular interiors. Managed by Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, the hotel offers a mix of private residences, transient hotel rooms, and 152 "hotel-condos" that generate income for owners through a revenue-sharing program.

The Plaza has long been celebrated in popular culture, from Neil Simon's “Plaza Suite” to films like "Scent of a Woman" and "Home Alone 2." Its Persian Room nightclub attracted icons like Peggy Lee and Liza Minnelli, and its storied ambiance continues to define New York glamour.
