The 1920s witnessed a transformative era influenced by Anne Morgan and Anne Vanderbilt, turning the area into a wealthy enclave who moved from their Fifth Avenue mansions, marking a pivotal chapter that shaped the lustrous neighborhood's destiny. Notable residents, including Jack L. Warner, Aristotle Onassis, Marilyn Monroe, Arthur Miller, Bill Blass, and Freddie Mercury, contribute to Sutton Place's rich legacy. Architect I. M. Pei, serving as the UN secretary general's residence since 1972 and today, fashion power couple Andrew Bolton and Thom Browne.
