Waldorf Astoria New York
About This Location
The legendary Waldorf Astoria, one of the most famous hotels in the world, shared more than just a name with Blair Waldorf. The Art Deco landmark on Park Avenue served as an occasional filming location and was referenced throughout the series. Its grand lobby, with the famous Waldorf clock, and the opulent ballrooms provided settings for some of the show's most glamorous events. The hotel's association with old-money New York society perfectly aligned with the Waldorf family's social standing in the show.
