The Frederick Hotel (New York City, New York)

 hotel, 1850s construction

7-story hotel completed in 1853. One of the oldest surviving hotel buildings in Manhattan, it is comprised of three major sections: the original Gothic Revival section at 127-131 Chambers, which was erected as a four-story building in 1844-45 and raised to six-and-one-half stories in 1867-68; the five-and-one-half story Italianate wing at 125 Chambers which was constructed in 1852-53; and the seven-story rear wing, built in 1869.

Between 1987 and 1989 the building underwent a series of alterations that Included rebuilding the six western bays of the Chambers Street facade and increasing the height of the building along Chambers Street and at the southern three bays of the West Broadway facade.

The hotel first opened as the Girard House. In 1869, the hotel was leased by the Huggins brothers, two experienced hoteliers, who renamed it the Cosmopolitan Hotel. They operated the hotel until the 1890s. Sometime around 1950 it was renamed the Bond Hotel, and underwent alterations in the 1980s.

It has since retaken the Cosmopolitan Hotel name, later changed to The Frederick in 2020.
