A duplex residence on the Upper East Side, previously home to writer George Plimpton, is coming onto the market for $5.25 million. Covering 4,700-square-feet, the five-bedroom home was pivotal in New York's cultural history, once hosting luminaries like Truman Capote and Andy Warhol. Originally built as tenements in 1894 and transformed in the 1930s, the property showcases historical elements alongside modern renovations. With its literary significance and location overlooking the East River, it represents a unique opportunity for buyers interested in owning a piece of New York's artistic legacy.
The duplex has been the site of legendary parties back in the day, which drew the likes of Truman Capote, Paul McCartney, Andy Warhol and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis to name a few.
Originally a working-class neighborhood, by the 1920s, it became fashionable to live along the East River.
