Millan House is a historic co-op in Lenox Hill on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City.[1] The co-op is made up of two buildings located at 115 East 67th Street and 116 East 68th Street, with 57 apartments in total.[1] They are connected by "a formal back garden".[1] The buildings are contributing properties to the Upper East Side Historic District.[2]
The land was given to the Baptist Church shortly after the American Civil War.[1] By 1929, John D. Rockefeller Jr. purchased the land from the church for US$1 million.[1] He hired architect Andrew J. Thomas to design the building.[1] Construction began in 1930.[1] It was completed in 1931.[2]
Early tenants included Simon Flexner, Herbert L. Pratt Jr. (the son of Herbert L. Pratt) and Witherbee Black (of the family silversmith firm Black, Starr & Frost-Gorham).[1] By 1947, tenant J. W. Boardman Milligan insisted upon turning the rent-only building into a co-op.[1] Later, Frank K. Houston, the chairman and chief executive officer of the Chemical Bank, lived here until his death in 1973.[3]
