Michael Diamond’s mother, the late Hester Diamond, raised her children in a sprawling Eldorado co-op that just hit the market for sale.
The residence has no fewer than 6,300 square feet of living space and more than 800 square feet of terrace space., who died in 2020 at age 91, lived there for more than 50 years. Diamond and her first husband, Harold Diamond — who died in 1982 at age 56 — moved into the Eldorado in the mid-1960s as renters. When the two-towered complex became a co-op in 1982, the couple purchased the duplex and an adjoining 19th-floor apartment.
“Pretty much every room in the house changed its function at least once during the 50 years my mom lived there,” Michael Diamond, 56, told the paper.The eat-in kitchen, which is also roomy, has an eat-in nook.During their time shared in the building, the couple began collecting art. Hester worked as a social worker, while Harold was a teacher — and they eventually settled on careers in the art world, setting up their own business.
As it stands, however, the duplex is empty. In early 2021, Sotheby’s auctioned off $26.7 million worth of Hester’s keep — including the carved “Autumn” sculpture by Pietro and Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Pieter Coecke Van Aelst’s “A Triptych: The Nativity.” Other belongings were donated or split between surviving family members. Michael added that Hester’s corner office was lined with Beastie Boys gold records.
