Essex House is one of New York City's most recognizable hotels and residences. The 43 story Art Deco tower was converted in 1974 by Marriott, becoming the first condo hotel in New York City. The rooftop Essex House sign is a NYC icon which has been featured in many works of art including the animated film Madagascar.
