As every New Yorker who spots a celebrity at Duane Reade knows, thousands of art and pop culture luminaries have called the city home. From Whitman to Warhol, this is a quick guide to the places notable New Yorkers have lived and worked.

“1215 Park Avenue, adjoining the S.E. corner of 95th Street. This and its neighbors will be standing in 1935. About 1912.” Indeed, 1215 Park Avenue (once home to the writer Joan Didion) and its neighbors are still standing in 2016.

No. 1217 underwent extensive restoration and facade resurfacing in 2006 when it was converted back to a single-family dwelling. Except for the absence of carved panels, the upper two stories on Park Avenue are identical to those of No. 1213. Under the oriel, a corbeled brick facing was added. Round-arched windows on the parlor floor have hood moldings; a trio of whimsical creatures eye passersby. On either side are terra-cotta escutcheons, incised to suggest tiny bearded faces. The basement doors on Park Avenue are windows, restoring the original entrance to 95th Street. A wide three-step stoop is flanked with newel posts and iron railings. On either side of the door are gas-burning lanterns. Only the lowest portion on 95th Street is of brownstone; the top three stories are of red brick, with brownstone quoins defining the corners. Centered over the entrance, brick pilasters flank second and third-story windows, between which is a carved spandrel (including, perhaps, another face). The upper round-arched window has a hood molding. Narrow arched niches shelter foliate carvings.
