Ogden Codman House

The building is located on the border between the Carnegie Hill and East Harlem neighborhoods of Manhattan, New York City.

Built of limestone, the Codman mansion has been called an "airy frivolity", but the AIA Guide to New York City describes it as "a Parisian townhouse cut down to American 'size'.

"[3] The building is distinguished by wrought-iron balconies, dormer windows, and a porte-cochère leading to a courtyard and garage.

As one of the last three residences built in the 1910s and still standing in East 96th Street, the building was designated a New York City Landmark on May 25, 1967.
