We need a museum to preserve this.

A lot of the artwork and furniture looks to be his, based on other past photos.

Obviously some theatre entity needs to buy it and preserve it as a museum, or better yet. What about a site specific production of Company??

I would kill (literally) to have that house!

The area is not zoned for a museum and the very beautiful house, even at $7M, is priced extremely low for Manhattan. It must have major repair issues.

Kinda heartbreaking. I know it's just a building. Still...

$7M that's cheap for the townhome I bet it goes quickly.

It’s truly gorgeous. I hope it finds a buyer who can appreciate its history.

I thought the same thing. THAT MUSIC ROOM. Iconic and historic.

I agree that it sounds cheap. i would have thought for a Turtle Bay Gardens townhouse, and with that provenance, it would have been twice to three times that much.
