Chelsea Hotel (222 W 23rd St between Seventh and Eighth Aves)
Icons such as Mark Twain, Leonard Cohen and Iggy Pop have called this structure home (it also gained notoriety after Nancy Spungen, girlfriend of Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious, was stabbed there in 1978). From the outside, the 1884 construction still looks identical to the building where bohemians and punks congregated, but the inside is a slightly different story: Parts of the building are currently being renovated, with plans to reopen as a fancier hotel.
