Zucker Residence

  • On December 5, 1978 the residence is sold by Gerald Mast to Cynthia Zucker.

  • The project scope is to design an interior renovation and rear addition to an original brownstone built in 1811.

  • Rudolph renovates the residence again in 1993, adding an elevator and creating an open interior with 4 stories of glass looking into the 22’ x 45’ rear garden.

  • Interiors are designed by Cecil Hayes.

  • The property is sold by Cynthia Zucker c/o the Donald Zucker Company on June 04, 2012 for $8,500,000 to 42 West 11 LLC.

  • On November 21, 2012 Stephan Harris Architects LLP files an Alteration Type-1 to modify the building bulk, including exterior walls, stair, partitions, ceilings and doors. The work is signed off as complete on December 27, 2016.
