Windsor Hotel, demolished hotel in Manhattan, New York
The Windsor Hotel is a small hotel in the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York. It offers rooms with private bathrooms and is situated close to the boundary with the Lower East Side.
The East Village was originally part of the Lower East Side and became home to waves of immigrant communities through the early 20th century. By the latter half of the century it had shifted into a center for artists and performers.
The Windsor Hotel sits in the East Village, a neighborhood long associated with experimental theater and independent art spaces. Visitors stepping outside will find small venues and galleries tucked between old tenement buildings.
The hotel has a front desk staffed around the clock and offers an airport shuttle for arriving guests. The East Village location means that many nearby spots are within walking distance, making it easy to explore on foot.
A few steps from the hotel stands La Mama Experimental Theatre Club, one of the oldest off-Broadway venues in the city, which has been running since the 1960s. Many playwrights and directors who later became well known first showed their work there.
