Manhattan House

Building Description

A large post-war modernist building designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and Mayers & Whittlesley that, by some accounts, started "the age of white-brick monstrosities" in the city. Nevertheless, in 1952 Manhattan House was awarded the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects award for outstanding apartment house and in 2007 it was designated a NYC landmark. And just to set right all those colorful adjectives used to describe Manhattan House, the building's brick is, in fact, self-cleansing light gray. The building was built in 1950.
