In season three of HBO’s And Just Like That, Carrie Bradshaw moves out of her one-bedroom Upper East Side apartment—which is actually located in the West Village—and into a historic Gramercy Park townhouse. The stunning new address—and character development—is located at 3 Gramercy Park West, which was constructed in 1846 and includes nine units across four stories. 

The property last sold in 2019 for $4.495 million. One of its former residents was religious leader and educator Benjamin Franklin Lee, who lived here from 1866 until 1871. Decades later, the private home operated as The Netherland Club of New York, a private club for men of Dutch ancestry. Before this, the townhouse was used by the Young Women’s Christian Association.

In 1939, architect Eugene Schoen purchased the townhouse from the Netherland Club, and shortly thereafter, he told The New York Times that the residence would be converted into small apartments. “One and two-room kitchen and kitchenette apartments will be made out of the old building,” explained Schoen.

3 Gramercy Park West was soon divided, with two apartments on each floor. Notable residents have included author and silent film actress Martha Sleeper, as well as the former editor of Harper’s Bazaar, author and journalist Elizabeth Jordan, and actress and interior designer Iris Whitney. While the interiors of the townhouse have been altered throughout its history, the exterior is essentially the same.

Just next door is the townhouse at 4 Gramercy Park West, which has its own celebrity ties. Bob Dylan’s 1965 album Highway 61 Revisited features this very dwelling on its cover, with the famed musician sitting on the building’s stoop. It was originally the residence of New York City mayor and publisher James Harper, who lived here from 1847 until he died in 1869. 

Both Greek Revival townhouses feature New Orleans-inspired cast iron porches designed by American architect Alexander Jackson Davis, who also designed Lyndhurst Mansion in Tarrytown, New York. That very house museum, which plays a starring role in HBO’s The Gilded Age, currently has an exhibition focused on Davis on display through September 23.
