The property was designed in the early 1900s by architects George Lewis Heins and Christopher Grant LaFarge, who specialized in designing social clubs. While the house was being constructed, Jeannette traveled to Europe in search of period rooms. For the third floor of her new home she purchased an 18th century polyhedral mirrored boudoir from the Hôtel De Crillon in Paris. The room had been made for Louis-Marie-Augustin, duc d'Aumont. And, to properly house her late husband's extensive book collection she imported a baroque-style library room with a 16th century ceiling taken from a Neapolitan palazzo. For her salon, Jeanette purchased boiserie originally designed for the Hôtel De Sens in Paris. After Jeannette passed away in 1923, her daughter Susan Bliss would later donate her mother's boudoir to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it exhibited in the Wrightsman Collection, and her library room to Bowdoin College in Maine. After Susan passed away in 1967, the home served as the Clinical Psychologist Center for Marital and Family Therapy, the Bliss mansion was converted to rental apartments, whose former residents included actors including Candice Bergen and Al Pacino. We'll soon be welcoming many new faces to this historical property, where the setting has been edited to celebrate both its female-spirit and cultural heritage. ## Amenities - Body soap - Cleaning products - Conditioner - Hot water - Shampoo - Clothing storage - Sound system - Bathtub - Room-darkening shades - Carbon monoxide detector - Smoke detector - Coffee maker - Dining table - Dishes and silverware - Dishwasher - Freezer - Kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stove - Toaster - Wine glasses - City View - Laptop friendly workspace - Long term stays allowed - Air conditioning - Bed linens - Cable TV - Dryer - Elevator - Essentials - Hair dryer - Hangers - Heating - Iron - Kitchen - TV - Washer - Wireless Internet ## Details **Pets:** none **Parking:** none **Laundry:** unit --- This is an AI-readable summary.
