Interesting! My aunt got a divorce in a Waldorf Astoria. Her husband apparently had 2 other whole entire families, kids and all that were kept a secret. She found him in a Waldorf with one of them. May have lost her marriage but she got a pretty sweet lump sum out of it! Now she's retired in a mansion in south Florida. Woo, go aunt Jen! Cheers to that!

Can't believe they just casually demolished luxury hotels and mansions in New York back in the day, so much waste 😪

William tore down his mansion and built the Waldorf specifically to annoy and upset his aunt. He also moved to England and became Viscount Astor.

I visited the huge nyc public library on 42nd street and seen original oil paintings of the Astor family. It brought me here.
