Alfred Zucker was one of the leading architects of the Gilded Age, best known for designing The Hotel Majestic for Jacob Rothschild and the Plaza Hotel in Argentina. As one of New York’s most prominent families, they spared no expense on construction and design, choosing the best architect and materials of the time. Over the decades, the carriage house continued to evolve, serving as a bottling plant and later a repackaging factory. In 1970, it became a Hollywood memorabilia warehouse, housing film props and costumes worn by stars including Elizabeth Taylor, Judy Garland and Greta Garbo. ►Downing Street: The south-facing residence sits on a quiet, discreet West Village block, with Sir Winston Churchill Square at the corner.
