Info
The Sherry Netherland Hotel is a 38-story apartment hotel located at 781 Fifth Avenue on the corner of East 59th Street in Manhattan, New York City. It was designed and built by Schultze & Weaver with Buchman & Kahn. The building is 570 feet (170 m) high, and was noted as the tallest apartment-hotel in New York City when it opened.
The building houses 165 apartments that were converted to co-ops in 1954. There are only 54 hotel rooms and suites, but in the tower above the 24th floor there are single apartments to a floor. The French Gothic/French Renaissance Chateauesque roofline with gargoyles disguises the water tower.
The Sherry-Netherland is located within the Upper East Side Historic District, which was designated by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1981.
