The New Yorker Hotel
481 Eighth Avenue
New York, NY 10001
The 43-story New Yorker Hotel was built in 1929 and opened its doors on January 2, 1930. Much like its contemporaries, the Empire State Building (opened in 1931) and the Chrysler Building (opened in 1930), the New Yorker is designed in the Art Deco style that was popular in the 1920s and 1930s. The building's pyramidal, set-back tower structure largely resembles that of the Empire State Building, which lies just a couple blocks due east on 34th Street.
The New Yorker Hotel is located at the corner of 8th Ave and 34th Street in Midtown Manhattan. It is a fully functioning hotel, featuring spectacular panoramic views of midtown Manhattan from its 39th floor dining lounge. Diners get a sweeping view of landmarks such as the Chrysler Building to the north, the Empire State Building and One Penn Plaza, due east, and lower Manhattan, due south. It is in proximity to Madison Square Garden, Penn Station, Macy's and the Jacob Javits Convention Center. Visitors can come by bus, arriving at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, just a few blocks north on 8th Avenue, or by train, as Penn Station is across the street.

The Whitney Museum of American Art, known informally as the "Whitney", was founded in 1931 by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney (1875–1942), a wealthy and prominent American socialite and art patron. The museum focuses on 20th- and 21st-century American art, with a permanent collection that comprises more than 21,000 pieces by more than 3,000 artists.
The Whitney occupied a modernist Upper East Side building from 1966 through 2014 before relocating to its current home, a nine-story, 200,000-square-foot Renzo Piano-designed building at 99 Gansevoort Street, in May 2015.
This ceiling is in the Military Museum in The Citadel. The building was once the Harem Palace of Muhammad Ali. Later, it became a family residence of the Khedives. During the Second World War, the British used it as a military hospital.
Icons Remix, was opened on Mother's Day 2010 by the controversial Mr. Brainwash. Mr. Brainwash reopened the original massively hyped pop art exhibition, Icons, in a 15,000 square foot space at 415 West 13th Street. Mr. Brainwash (MBW), a pseudonym for Thierry Guetta, was supposedly a French documentarian and videographer turned street and pop artist, whose story is told through Banksy's 2010 film, Exit Through the Gift Shop.

Ali once confided in his longtime adviser and friend Gene Kilroy that fighting Inoki could lead to similar bouts in the future. He was right. Ali and Inoki weren’t the first fighters take part in a hybrid bout. But their match inspired a generation of fighters and promoters to create mixed martial arts as we know it today.
