A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because a 1930 tower on Fifth and 61st still runs its elevators with white-gloved attendants and keeps its Forbes Four-Star standing under the Taj name — and we list it at exactly the tier it holds.
- Forbes Four-Star 2026 for the hotel, listed here as exactly that.
- A grande dame of 1930 at 2 East 61st Street, on the corner of Fifth Avenue, run by Taj Hotels.
- Perrine for dining, Two E for jazz, and the Rotunda with its trompe-l'oeil murals.
- Elevators still run by white-gloved attendants.
