Designed by Emery Roth, this thirteen-story residential building at 28 East 10th Street/47-59 University Place is known as Devonshire House and was constructed in 1928. Roth also designed the landmarked El Dorado, Beresford, Normandy, and Oliver Cromwell apartments on the Upper West Side, the St. Moritz and the Ritz in Midtown, and 888 Grand Concourse, as well as the nearby 1 University Place and 59 West 12th Street. A number of renowned actors, an episode of Seinfeld, a "Golden Age" comic book series, a Dutch filmmaker, and a significant NYPL donor are associated with this building.
