Garden Terrace
At Aman New York · 14F
A wraparound outdoor terrace on the 14th floor of Aman New York, set inside the historic Crown Building at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street. The terrace features firepits, reflecting pools, and a retractable glass roof that keeps it open year-round. Access is reserved for hotel guests and Aman Club members only.

Atmosphere
The atmosphere is unexpectedly still — firepits and water features absorb the noise of Midtown below, and the retractable roof means the space feels open to the sky even in winter.
Key features
The corner bar looks directly down onto the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, the retractable glass roof makes the terrace usable in any weather, the Crown Building was the original home of MoMA before the museum moved uptown

About the hotel
The Crown Building at 57th and Fifth, the gold-domed 1921 landmark you've looked at from the street for years, holds 83 suites across 26 floors. Every room is a suite because the historic floor plates couldn't be divided for standard hotel efficiency, so Aman turned the constraint into the product. The result is the quietest address on Fifth Avenue, organized around space rather than scale.

The Jazz Club
Music · Bar · Speakeasy
A hidden jazz sanctuary under the Crown Building with its own ticketed entry, its own programming, and its own identity separate from the hotel above. The space was designed for performance rather than background listening, with sightlines and acoustics organized around the stage. You don't need to be staying at the Aman to get a seat.

Arva
Restaurant · ExclusiveAccess
The Italian restaurant on the lower floors of the Crown Building, with garden terrace access when the weather holds. The kitchen works around cucina del raccolto, harvest cuisine, which means the menu shifts with what the season provides rather than what stays consistent year-round.

Nama
Restaurant · ExclusiveAccess
Chef Takuma Yonemaru's Japanese dining room on an upper floor of the Crown Building, organized around washoku principles and a lunch and dinner menu that sources locally within a Japanese culinary framework. Seasonal, balanced, built around the relationship between technique and ingredient rather than between dish and trend.

Lounge Bar
Bar · Lounge · ExclusiveAccess
The bar positioned off the hotel's main living floor, a few steps from the Crown Lounge and away from the street-level energy of Fifth Avenue. It runs a serious cocktail program without the performance of a hotel bar that needs to prove itself to non-guests. The seating is intimate and deliberately unhurried.

Corner Bar
Bar · ExclusiveAccess
Positioned above the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street with views directly down Midtown's most recognized intersection, the Corner Bar serves seasonal Italian and Japanese fare alongside cocktails, which makes it a bridge between Arva and Nama rather than a standalone concept. The views from this height are the clearest argument for the seat.
