About This Home

As of June 2025

High on the 15th and 16th floors of the Hotel des Artistes is this unique architect-designed three bedroom duplex residence. It was once the home of “King of Jazz” bandleader Paul Whiteman, who commissioned George Gershwin to compose the classic “Rhapsody in Blue” for his orchestra to perform in 1924. Most recently it was the home of architect David Specter (the Galleria, the first USTA National Tennis Center in Flushing) and his wife art advisor Patricia Brown Specter who together designed the extraordinary home.

From the moment you enter apartment 915 via the foyer to an expansive double living room, you will be impressed by the artistic blend of pre-war details and mid-century modern vibe. A vintage paneled ceiling accentuated with medieval-style portraits encases the 29’5” long south-facing living room featuring two built-in seating areas and a wood-burning fireplace. A separate dining room has a pass-through window to the kitchen.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The oversized primary bedroom has a dressing room full of closets and a beautiful stain glass window, leading to a windowed marble bath. The second bedroom, now used as a den, has a vintage wood-burning fireplace and shares a windowed tiled bath with the third bedroom. All of the bedrooms have great light, with two of them facing south.

Apt 915 is on the Penthouse floor of the Hotel des Artistes, where there are a total of just four residences. It has Southern exposures overlooking West 67th Street, Eastern and Northern exposure ensuring great light and multiple side views of Central Park and Tavern on the Green from many rooms.

The Hotel des Artistes is a full-service cooperative with amenities not often available in pre-war buildings, including a full-time concierge and elevator operator, a swimming pool, a squash court with a basketball hoop, two workout rooms as well as a charming high-walled roof deck. The Leopard at the des Artistes offers romantic outdoor and indoor dining as well as room service — all at a discount for des Artistes residents. The building has a long history of prominent residents including dancer Isadora Duncan, Norman Rockwell, Noel Coward, Rudolph Valentino, artist LeRoy Neiman and former NYC Mayor John Lindsay.
