End of an era for New Yorks Astor Hotel
The Hotel Astor in Times Square will be torn down at year start for a 40 story office tower. Opened in 1904, the landmark once drew world travelers but now epitomizes a fading era as guests shrink and stays shorten amid changing travel habits. Historic figures like Charles Evans Hughes and Gen. John J. Pershing stayed there, while the hotel struggles to stay relevant in a jet age.
