THE PLAZA
Striking the balance between a storied past and a limitless future, The Plaza Hotel emerges from a $400 million transformation to embrace the contemporary spirit while honoring its rich tradition and history. Since its construction in 1907, this fabled national landmark has hosted some of the most extraordinary New York City galas and events. From Truman Capote's Black and White Ball to Mick Jagger's 50th birthday party and everything in between, The Plaza has simultaneously been the setting, backdrop and star of New York's most memorable moments. It is continuously regarded as an essential New York event space.
The Grand Ballroom Foyer, which also received landmark status, is restored as well. Additional construction has recently been completed on the catering operations, which includes a new kitchen as well as a pre-function space. The Plaza now also features an unprecedented 15,000 square feet of meeting space on the fourth floor. Seven meeting rooms in total are available, each equipped with wireless services and state-of-the-art conferencing equipment.
