Description
The building which housed the Biltmore Hotel was demolished in 1981 despite its "landmark" status and street protests. The hotel had a clock at the reception in Palmcourt under which various meetings were held. The place had become famous.
New Yorkers had an expression: "We meet under the clock!". It also remained famous for its direct connection to Grand Central Station, with its own arrival area. After the demolition, the clock was placed in the lobby of the new building.
