Since it first opened its doors in October 1907, the Plaza has been the hub of glamour and culture in New York. It is where F. Scott Fitzgerald lived during the Jazz Age, where Frank Lloyd Wright stayed while building the Guggenheim Museum, where the Beatles bivouacked when they invaded America, and where Macaulay Culkin stayed after spending all that time home alone. It's where Liza Minnelli grew up and Eloise acted up.
Ward Morehouse III, who himself did some growing up at the hotel, has collected all the Plaza's gems, looked into all the nooks and crannies. In his newly revised and updated edition, Morehouse recounts the hotel's recent $450 million transformation, with its 181 luxury condominium residences, 282 guest rooms and suites, and landmark public spaces, such as the Oak Room and Oak Bar.
He has created a special and personal account of the only storybook castle in America where anyone who desires to can stay overnight.
Ward Morehouse III (New York, NY) is the author of The Waldorf-Astoria, Life at the Top: Inside New York's Grand Hotels, and Discovering the Hudson, as well as Broadway After Dark, which contains columns celebrating Broadway written by him and by his father, the late Ward Morehouse, a well-known drama critic and columnist. Morehouse was chief theater columnist for the New York Post from 1994 to 1998 and continues to contribute to its news and celebrity pages today. He is editor of the popular Broadwayafterdark.net website and writes the monthly “Checking” column for Travel Smart Newsletter. In addition, he is the author of the off-Broadway plays The Actors, If It Was Easy (co-written with Stewart F. Lane'), 'Gangplank, and Beloved Broadway; and he wrote the book for the musical A Night at the Astor (music by David Romeo).
