The Joseph Pulitzer House is a mansion at 7-11 East 73rd Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City. It was designed by McKim, Mead & White and constructed for the family of Joseph Pulitzer, who lived there from 1904 to his death in 1911. The house remained in the family until 1934.[1]
It was planned to be replaced with modern apartment houses in 1930[2] and again in 1952.[3] The home was converted into 14 cooperative apartments in 1957.[1]
