217 EAST 61st STREET – HISTORIE:

217 East 61st Street ligger i en trebeplantet rekkehusgate i et lite historisk distrikt på Manhattans Upper East Side og var en gang hjemmet til Broadway- og Hollywood-stjernen Montgomery Clift. Blant hans mange hovedroller i filmer finner vi «From Here to Eternity» med Frank Sinatra og Burt Lancaster, «Red River» med John Wayne, «A Place in the Sun» med Elizabeth Taylor og «The Misfits» med Clark Gable og Marilyn Monroe. Taylor og Monroe var hyppige gjester hos Clift i nr. 217, sammen med mange andre stjerner. Den lille baren i den doble salongen, der Clift underholdt gjestene, ble ikke rørt under den fullstendige renoveringen av eiendommen, som tilføyde moderne bekvemmeligheter til tidligere tiders eleganse. 217 hadde en bemerkelsesverdig historie også før Montgomery Clift eide huset. I 1906 ga president Theodore Roosevelt det til datteren Alice i bryllupsgave (ifølge New York Magazine, 4. juni 2006). Clift kjøpte eiendommen av grev Serge Obolensky, en russisk adelsmann i eksil og en fremtredende skikkelse i New Yorks sosietetsliv. I tillegg til sin distingverte historie og beliggenhet har 217 E. 61st den komfortable, tradisjonelle og familievennlige atmosfæren du kanskje er på utkikk etter.

217 EAST 61st STREET HISTORY:

Located on a tree-lined townhouse block in a small historic district on Manhattan's Upper East Side, 217 East 61st Street was once the home of Broadway and Hollywood star Montgomery Clift. His many starring roles in movies include: "From Here to Eternity" with Frank Sinatra and Burt Lancaster; "Red River" with John Wayne; "A Place in the Sun" with Elizabeth Taylor; and "The Misfits" with Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe. Taylor and Monroe were Clift's frequent guests at 217 along with many other stars. The small bar on the double-parlor floor around which Clift entertained them was untouched in the complete renovation of the property which added modern conveniences to past elegance. 217 had a notable history before Montgomery Clift owned it. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt gave it to his daughter Alice as a wedding present (according to New York Magazine, June 4, 2006). Clift bought the property from Count Serge Obolensky, a Russian noble-in-exile and New York society figure. In addition to its distinguished history and location, 217 E. 61st has the comfortable, traditional family friendly feeling that you may be looking for.
