Former Home of Andy Warhol

The townhouse at 57 East 66th Street served as the final residence of the artist Andy Warhol. He purchased the property in 1974 for 310,000 dollars, taking advantage of a dip in the market at the time. Warhol lived here until his death in 1987, turning the space into a highly personal, private retreat that stood in stark contrast to his public image as the ringleader of the chaotic Factory studio. While he was famous for allowing visitors into his workspace, he kept this home largely closed off, even from his closest friends.
