Abstract: Let Y be an absolute neighborhood retract (ANR) for the class of metric spaces and let X be a Hausdorff space. Let map(X,Y) denote the space of continuous maps from X to Y with the compact open topology. It is shown that if X is a CW complex then map(X,Y) is an ANR for the class of metric spaces if and only if map(X,Y) is metrizable and has the homotopy type of a CW complex. The same holds also when X is a compactly generated hemicompact space (metrizability assumption is void in this case).
