History and famous guests
James Dean lived in the Iroquois (which now features The James Dean Suite), which also served as the headquarters of The National Council of the Arts, Sciences and Professionals in 1949. Hotel Edison's namesake Thomas Edison turned on the lights at the hotel's grand opening and both the building and its restaurants have since been featured in several films, including The Godfather, Bullets Over Broadway and Birdman.
In November, 2017 the Hotel Chandler was shut down and converted into the area's first homeless shelter for New York City families.
