Living in Barbizon/63, an iconic, Lenox Hill building with nearly one decade of name recognition, means owning a piece of women’s history. Built in 1927, the 24-story tower was among the numerous residential hotels built in that decade for young, ambitious women. The Barbizon Hotel for Women, as it was named, was perhaps the most prestigious and well-known. Its brick facade was designed by 20th-century architect Murgatroyd & Ogden in a blend of Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance styles and remains noticeable along Lexington Avenue’s relatively simple architecture. Barbizon/63’s Art-Deco-esque marquee still governs the entry, where hundreds of impressive women once traveled between their small rooms and classes, auditions or newly-acquired jobs. Converted into a full-service, luxury condominium in 2005, the building is now composed of 70 residences as opposed to 700 hotel rooms. This New York City landmark is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
