  • We're visiting one of the very few New York homes that were designed by influential modernist architect - Paul Rudolph. 101 East 63rd Street later became the home of iconic Fashion Designer Halston whose decadent star studded parties were among the city's most envied invites, a place to both start and end a night at Studio 54. It's that rare place that is significant both architecturally and socially to the history of New York.

      His name was always mentioned at Studio 54 but as far as we knew was about Liza Minnelli friendship. Quite sad he wasn’t legally advice at that time
      he sold his name.

Halston did have a cook/assistant named Mohammed Soumaya. So the kitchen was used daily (I'd still like to see it!). Halston also loved using Dial-A-Steak, a 1960s and 1970s version of today's DoorDash (being from Indiana, he preferred steak and potatoes). He didn't really have things "flown in," according to those who knew him best.

      Oh please! Talk to the Corporate real estate sell outs. Half of NYC is owned by Chinese investors. It all started with Ghouliani bankrupting the City with his Quality of Life scam. Overpaying the cops for overtime, getting rid of protections for working class people but giving tax breaks to the Corporate grifters.

      Halston slept with many prople/strangers. Maybe he had it first and gave it to Victor....who knows. The show was good though.
