Acclaimed designer and National Medal of Arts recipient Maya Lin is best known for grand works like the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington D.C. and the Civil Rights Memorial in Alabama, but her work on a smaller scale is equally striking. In The Curzon House, a prestigious condominium on the Upper East Side, #2/3 is a combination of two units, the original of which was designed by Ms. Lin. The five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath apartment was listed for $8.5 million, and recently closed for $8.1 million. Olivia Hoge of Sotheby’s International Realty represented the seller.
The Curzon House was created from the merging of several Beaux Arts mansions, and its white glove services include those of a full-time doorman and resident manager. It is less than half a block from Central Park, one block from Barneys New York, and a short walk from some of the most prestigious shops and restaurants on Madison Avenue.
