    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 18, 2008; Designation List 407 LP-2267 MORRIS B. SANDERS STUDIO & APARTMENT 219 East 49th Street, Manhattan. Built 1934-35; Morris B. Sanders, architect. Landmarks Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1323, Lot 10. On October 30, 2007, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Morris B. Sanders Studio & Apartment and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 10). The hearing had been advertised in accordance with provisions of law. A representative of the owner spoke in opposition to designation. Two witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Historic Districts Council and the Landmarks Conservancy. In addition, the Commission received three letters in support of designation, including one from Manhattan Community Board Six. Summary Morris B. Sanders, Jr. designed and built 219 East 49th Street in 1934-35. Located in the Turtle Bay section of Manhattan, between Second and Third Avenues, this building was one of the earliest structures in New York City to adapt the aesthetic principles pioneered by Le Corbusier and other European modernists starting in the 1920s. Whereas the nearby Lescaze House, considered to be the first truly modern-style residence in New York City, was built on East 48th Street as an alteration to an existing structure in 1934, the 5½ story Sanders Studio & Apartment was an entirely new structure. Planned with two duplex apartments and an office for Sanders on the first floor, the upper stories are cantilevered and clad with blue glazed brick and several types of glass.

Community Board No. 6 took no position at this time and a representative of the owner of the property requested that the public record remain open for a period of thirty days. Summary Paul Rudolph, one of the most celebrated and innovative American architects of the 20th century, was associated with 23 Beekman Place for more than 35 years, from 1961 until his death in 1997. Trained at the Harvard Graduate School of Design in the 1940s, Rudolph was a second-generation modernist who grew dissatisfied with functional aesthetics but remained committed to exploiting industrial materials to create structures of great formal complexity. From 1958 to 1965, he served as chairman of the Department of Architecture at Yale University, where he designed the well-known Art and Architecture Building, now called Paul Rudolph Hall. Rudolph began leasing an apartment on the fourth floor of 23 Beekman Place in 1961, which became his full-time residence in 1965.
