The Astor building at 235 West 75th Street is a grey-brick building that fronts on Broadway between 75th and 76th Streets on the Upper East Side in New York City. It consists of two 8-story wings that were erected by William Waldorf Astor II in 1909 and a 12-story wing that was built four years later on the northern section of the site. Clinton and Russell was the architect for the low-rise wings and Peabody, Wilson & Brown did the taller tower.〔(The Astor ), Legacy〕 All three wings are connected at the base and have gray brick facades above a limestone base. The buildings are also distinguished by limestone quoins. Despite its good looks, the building eventually fell on hard times and became a single-room occupancy property that was described by New York State Attorney General Louis J. Lefkowitz as "an incredible chamber of horrors."〔(The Conversion of 'an Incredible Chamber of Horrors' ) by Alan S. Oser, ''The New York Times'', December 2, 1977 〕 In 1977, Herbert Mandel look over the property for rental apartments and in 2014 HFZ Capital, which is headed by Ziel Feldman, brought the property for conversion to condominium apartments. ==References==
