Real Estate: 17 East 65th Street Town House in New York This rare 25 foot wide town house was originally built in 1940 for Sherman M. Fairchild, an American entrepreneur who founded 70 companies in aviation, photography and semiconductors and personally held over 30 patents. His father was a Co-founder and first Chairman of IBM, leaving Sherman - upon his father's death - as the largest single individual stockholder. The present owner engaged the late architect Michael Graves to redesign the property in a Post Modern style. It is the only New York town house with an interior courtyard atrium soaring upward for three stories capped with a giant skylight. It features huge dramatic spaces as well as 5 bedrooms, 6 full baths, 2 half baths and a study. Currently for sale by Brown Harris Stevens for $40,000,000.
