New York’s landmark Waldorf Astoria Hotel to close in the Spring of Y 2017 so owner Anbang Insurance Group Co. can begin converting most of the more than 1,400 rooms to luxury condominiums.

The luxury hotel, managed by Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:HLT)  is set to reopen in Y 2020, with about 300 to 500 hotel rooms remaining.
