Manhattan House, Modern apartment building at 200 East 66th Street, Manhattan, US.

The 21-story residential structure encompasses a full city block, featuring a central spine with five wings and pale white brick facades along Third and Second Avenues.

Built between 1949 and 1951 under Gordon Bunshaft's design for New York Life Insurance Company, the structure replaced a 19th-century car barn at the location.

The residence attracted notable figures including clarinetist Benny Goodman and actress Grace Kelly, representing the mid-20th century modernist movement in residential architecture.

Manhattan House contains 582 apartments ranging from two to seven rooms, with many units featuring glass balconies and ground-level retail spaces for shopping convenience.

The building incorporates an extensive rooftop garden spanning its length, with upper stories designed to maximize natural light through large window configurations.
