"Sited where swampy lots were divided in the 1830s, the property traces back to the New York Hotel, which opened in 1925 on the site where Edith Wharton was born; I've learned it's a favorite of musicians, celebrities, and politicians—hosting Humphrey Bogart, John F. Kennedy, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, and Bob Marley—and its art collection includes works by Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Keith Haring." - Alison Fox Alison Fox Alison Fox is a Travel + Leisure contributor.
