The Belnord is one of Manhattan’s grandest turn-of-the-century residential buildings and is the famed setting for Only Murders in the Building, Hulu’s popular mystery-comedy starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez, whose characters work together to solve a murder in the fictional “Arconia” building on the Upper West Side.
