🌟 Welcome to the iconic world of Jackie Kennedy's New York City Apartment! 🏙️ Join us on a virtual tour to explore the timeless elegance and refined taste that defined the former First Lady's living space.
🛋️ Nestled in the heart of NYC, Jackie's apartment perfectly blends sophistication and charm. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted by a sense of grace and style that reflects her legendary taste in design.
🌷 Wander through the meticulously decorated rooms, adorned with classic furniture and subtle touches that showcase Jackie's keen eye for detail. The living room invites you to relax in an atmosphere of understated luxury, while the dining area exudes an air of intimate gatherings and elegant dinner parties.
📚 Discover the personal touches that make this apartment uniquely Jackie's, from family photographs to cherished mementos that tell the story of a remarkable life. The library, with its shelves of books and cozy reading nooks, provides a glimpse into the private moments of a woman known for her intelligence and poise.
📚 Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, or Jackie O as she was fondly nicknamed, transcended the role of First Lady. Born Jacqueline Lee Bouvier, she possessed an innate grace and elegance that captivated the public eye. Her life woven with personal triumphs and devastating tragedies, she left an enduring mark on American history.
📚 Jackie Kennedy's journey began in the affluent spheres of New York society. With a refined upbringing, she developed a passion for the arts, literature, and horseback riding. Marrying John F. Kennedy in 1953, she became a young and stylish First Lady at the dawn of a new era. Her impeccable fashion sense, with its pearls and pillbox hats, became a cultural touchstone.
📚 Beyond fashion, Jackie Kennedy actively cultivated the White House's cultural significance. She embarked on a mission to restore its historical grandeur, transforming it into a museum echoing America's rich past. Her televised tour, a first of its kind, brought the White House into living rooms across the nation, fostering a connection with the American people.
📚 However, tragedy struck in 1963 with the assassination of President Kennedy. Jackie Kennedy's composure and dignity in the face of national grief became an enduring image. She fiercely guarded her children's privacy while continuing to advocate for the arts and historic preservation.
📚 Jackie Kennedy later married Aristotle Onassis, a Greek shipping magnate. Following his death, she embarked on a successful career as a book editor, nurturing the talents of upcoming writers. Jackie Kennedy Onassis passed away in 1994, leaving behind a legacy of elegance, resilience, and a profound cultural impact.

After taking a look at Jackie Kennedy's New York City Apartment, what are your thoughts? Is her home as spectacular as you thought it would be?
00:21 -- Take a look at the spelling of Manhhetn on the map! Wow ...
The pictures did not follow the narrative.
Yes- it reflected the same distinct taste shown in her other homes- She had great taste- enjoyed the tour!
Does Caroline still have her mother's apartment to use when/if she visits NYC?
@@user-kp8sx1nh1c Would she even want to?
I remorember meeting Jackie as we waited for the light to turn green on 5th Ave and Central Park. I was a college art student leaving the Metropolitan Museum, - which was near her apartment. .I looked to my right and saw this beautiful woman with her iconic large sunglasses next to me. My friend nudged me - and said 'that's Jackie'. She turned and smiled. I idolized Jackie even though my family was Republican. The '60's was such a wonderful era of hope, culture, and beauty - despite the turmoil of Vietnam and the assassinations. We all thought we were on a path to a wonderful world. That was an era when Dems and Rep could talk to each other
I wonder how we lost the idealism of the 60's. Very sad. Look where we are now.
And put America First
😢😢😢@@cremebrulee4759
Curious: Which Art School did you go to ? I was in SVA in the early 1980s.
The 1980s was when we started to slide. @@cremebrulee4759
Mrs. Kennedy did not move from the White House to New York City. She and her children first moved to a townhouse in Georgetown, but nosy tourists made life there impossible for her. So she then moved to New York City.
Wasn’t she is Greece before she went to NYC?
@@kirstenalles9220Even though she was married and lived in Greece, she still kept her NYC apartment (since 1964). After Mr. Onassis died, she moved back home and lived there until she died at home in 1994.
So you’re telling me that NYC offers more privacy, then Washington DC? I would think NYC would be just as bad. There’s a lot more tourists on NYC streets, then a townhouse in Georgetown. The Dakota got a lot of tourists before 1980.
@@LavendarRoses when she lived in Greece, did she take her kids with her to Greece (I assume) Did they go to school in Greece, or homeschooled?
@@MikeCee7 Based on what I read, yes she had her kids with her to be out of public after JFK's assassination and when she remarried, she still had her kids with her in Greece. I don't know how they received an education in Greece but from my understanding, Caroline is fluent in few languages. So I assume she knows some Greek.
I absolutely love the picture of her near the end of the video when she has freckles on her nose. In that picture I can feel her beautiful spirit. God bless her soul.
She was the Queen of America and certainly raised two beautiful children and Cape Codders loved it when she came there.
Lovely First Ladies at their best are never “Queens” in America. Long, long ago astute people saw this as a trap. Those who still “hero worship”, even lowly Hollywood are carried away, feeding on ashes. It is still character that keeps the flame.
Your surroundings can be spectacular those surroundings around you will never replace those you have lost.
Amen.
IMO she was the very definition of class & grace. Such a strong woman who faced so many tragedies & did it with style & grace.
Pfffft just a gold-digger with a bloodline…..
Yes, she sure drowned her sorrow over losing JFK by marrying a super rich old fart just so she could continue to live in luxury. So what do we call a woman who screws for money?????? A gardening tool?
Even though she lived in NY during the 70's I'll bet even she would be shocked as to how low the city has descended today.
The description of the rooms unfortunately does not match the footage which I conclude was due to the lack of more photos of the apartment! Anyway, it was good to see the place.
It's like he was narrating a different video all together. I wonder what happened to the original pictures that he was narrating to? I mean did he lift the audio from somebody else's work?
$200,000 😮😮😮that’s just nuts!!!!
1,900,000.00 today.
@@michaelcole6062Which would be a steal for that 5,300 sq ft place in that neighborhood today. Even with all of the social disorder in NYC today.
@@michaelcole6062 Actually, not translatable. That 2 million might get one a nice one-bedroom apartment in Manhattan. I believe after her death in 1994 it was sold to David Koch for 9 million dollars, which was a lot then. Real-estate prices in NY have become ridiculous-- those horrible towers on 57th St. are mostly empty and represent 100 million plus apartments bought by people all over the world as a place to park money. Another consideration: if one buys an apartment for say, 2 million usd... the maintenance fee is astronomical. How do I know? read international real-estate listings. Cheers!
@@michaelcole6062 don't even want to think of the monthly maintenance...the taxes...the staff costs...initially the cash payment for the apartment came from a Kennedy trust fund apparently...
I always loved The Kennedy’s ever since I was little. ❤
With money and privilege, you can do anything, right?
she surrounded herself with the best things for her home, best clothes too.
I live in NYC and many years ago I crossed her path on the sidewalk..our eyes met and she gave me a brief radiant smile...that was fun!
I liked this apartment. It’s livable but full of beautiful things. And quirky in its colors and textures. I would have liked to live in a similar space.
I was lucky enough to get a glimpse of Jackie and the children when l was about 12 years old when they came to Newport News, Va. for the commissioning of the aircraft carrier named for JFK. I saw in the morning paper where they would be in town and l road my bike downtown to the main gate of the shipyard hoping to see them. I thought there would be a crowd waiting to see them but no one was there. I waited by the gate and after about five minutes the motorcade came down the street and turned into the gate right in front of me and l could clearly see Jackie, Caroline and John in the back of a limousine.
Her apartment is very elegant, such a lovely lady, with a sad story that will follow on through her children.
Let's not forget she went to Vassar to earn her Mrs. degree.
She only has one child.
Jackie had two a boy ans a girl.
Jackie had 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls, and she lost 1 of each thru miscarriage.
@@Julia-kc7xmOne child remaining. John Jr was tragically killed in a private plane crash, along with his wife and her sister. Caroline is the remaining child.
Tasteful, unpretentious, elegant, with touch of quirky and eclectic, old money aesthetic that manage to convey her essence and vision of what home should be. It's not easy making a home out of spaces that were built to impress not necessarily to offer sense of comfort and safety. She managed to do that.
It’s a spacious well lit and well furnished. A livable comfortable abode.
I'm amazed at how JFK was so conservative in his geopolitical outlook. Jackie was beautiful and walked in such grace.
THis was Jackie O's home and was designed with her taste. I respect that. It was also 60 years ago. The key if she and her kids/family were happy there. She had money and contacts unlike most of us. We see a lot of magazine homes / decor but it is often not attainable due to resources and family needs. Not my taste but it does speak and smell of money.
So admire,This elegant woman! Her life was well lived as her apartment reflects !❤
It was a lovely property but I think that the narrator had some things wrong. I saw no Picassos. Although the apartment was a fabulous piece of real estate, and I hope that Mrs. Kennedy Onassis and her children were very happy there, I think that it could have been “kept up” better. Some of the upholstery was worn to the point of being tattered. Also, especially in the dining room/library, the fabrics and carpets clashed. It’s hard to keep after a home but I do think that she “let it go” a bit too much. I do think that it was, and should have been, a comfortable family home for her and her children. However, I also think she should have kept after it a bit more so that it didn’t look so dated (and in some cases a little shabby).
@@ellenhartman26628
@@ellenhartman2662I loved this style.
Technically, she was Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. And she lived outside the US after the assassination of her brother in law Robert F. Kennedy, in various locations with Ari Onassis, after 1968, until his death in 1975. Whereas she received a settlement of about $26 million. Famously, a lover of French Provençal, speaking fluent French, and a degree in French literature, where she graduated from Georgetown University. She also lived in Paris and studied at the Sorbonne. And some of the photos in your video are not of her apartment building, nor the building on E 83rd and Park Ave. I remember when it was rumored she was dying, and people gathered outside her building. It was really sad passing it, when I walked to work during that period. She lead the fight to save Grand Central Station, and the preservation of the objects in the White House in 1962, which are now curated by the Smithsonian. I did like the photo in your video, from the balcony, where you can see the Egyptian addition to the Metropolitan Museum. After the assignation of her husband, she received a very small payment, from the United State government, which has since been amended for other First Ladies. After her marriage to Onassis, she permanently lost her secret service detail. Lastly, her former home in Georgetown, where she lived before buying the Park Avenue apartment in 1964, recently sold for $15 dollars. Bon Chance.
What amount would that small payment have been?
Great testimony.
@@claudiascott6484 honestly, I’m not sure that amount was ever public knowledge, because it hasn’t happened since 1901 with McKinley.
Guess you meant 15 million?
Slight correction, Jackie O did not lose all her security...it was negotiated down to one man, my first NYC Apt was on 84th off CPW and I would see her every morning jogging around the reservoir in central park when I jogged, and her SS agent was always with her just off to the side...
This video taught me the Kennedys had the same identical reindeer decoration in their Christmas tree as me!
After she married Aristotle Onassis,she faced charges of gold digging .
She answered:"Who did they want me to marry,some dentist in New Jersey?
She had been linked to Lord Harlach, former UK ambassador to the US, a widower and an old friend of Jack's since he had lived in Britain after Harvard and before the War and Navy. But he was more in the friend zone as we would say today.
Ouch!
LoL savage!!!
Such a snob
And she was only interested in money. People should read and know better History . They can see how she was when Onassis died with the poor Christina . Only takes some search and voila !! Lots of neutral information . Neutral and real . Even the myth of the Kennedys is easy to destroy just "digging" a bit . They wereall pretty disgusting and perverted.
I loved seeing where Jackie lived.
Such a beautiful home. Who would not love to live there in NYC, America's ONLY world class city. Yet, consider the tragedy and suffering in her life. I have heard it said that the Kennedy's were "cursed." They certainly had more than their fair share of tragedy, and one has to wonder if there really are "curses." Beautiful home; beautiful woman; and, an extraordinary life. May she rest in peace.
NYC was a world class city thanks to Mayor Giuliani and continuing until the end of Mayor Bloomberg's terms. Then it started turning into a rotten, stinking third world cesspit, and it still is that, today.
"America's ONLY world class city". Nice insult.
What exactly do you expect from a country 250 years old?
Should impoverished Italian immigrants who settled somewhere on the East coast have built another Rome to make you happy?
How about Swedish Minnesotans? Should they apologize to you for not building another Stockholm ??
Pennsylvania Germans? Please forgive them for not building another Heidelberg.
Not sure what is your problem. I was simply stating a fact. NYC is the U.S.'s only world class city. I am not a New Yorker, either.
Maybe you missed your nap? @@tomcarl8021
I am Australian and adore San Francisco.
Jackie was best friends with Bunny Mellon who heavily influenced her taste and played a big role in decorating this apartment.
And the rose garden. It was so beautiful .
Classic and elegant like her.
That's what I always thought about her also.
in the past it is was mentioned that her style was simple but elegant and I like that..however it s not simple 😆 that simple elegant style matches better to her cloth...very pretty...appartment is of course also pretty.
Mrs. Kennedy after her husband was assinated lived in Georgetown, Washington DC. After that they lived at Wexler and then she lived in her apartment in The Carlyle Hotel. A lovely woman.
I’d also love to see what the $200,000 apartment looked like before Jackie renovated it.
The image shown of the interior gallery with bookcases and a parquet flooring is the Paley apartment at 820 Fifth Avenue and decorated by Parish Hadley.
Tasteful, comfortable, and cozy yet elegant. She had great style.
YOU FORGOT GRACE ! she had GRACE!!!!!!!!
Elaine from Seinfeld..."I don't have grace, I don't want grace I don't even say grace"!@LannieLord
I have seen her a few times walking alone up fifth avenue. No one bothered her. She's fairly easy to recognize. Then again you see many well people in N.Y.C.
It was just how I. Imagined it Would be .❤️
Also I suspect she married Onassis for financial security reasons
To a certain extent. He kept the press at bay as well.
Safety
Jackie was quoted as saying she married Onassis because she was terrified. She was afraid that whoever murdered her husband might come after her and her children. Onassis was one of the most powerful men in the world then, and was more than able to protect her
@@macpduff2119 True
Her home is much like I thought it would be, and exactly mirrors my own heartfelt efforts in my home. She was older, but yet a contemporary of mine. Though, I certainly, did not agree with the politics, or her husband’s of treatment of their marriage, and family, I most assuredly agreed with her taste.
I’d like to see the bathrooms and the kitchen 😊
Me, too. How come we never see the good stuff. ☺️
Looking very gorgeous!!😊😊
👏👏👏excellent content for a remarkable Queen 🎉👏!
Thank you so much! I appreciate this!
I do like her decorating...every couch is nappable
Celebrity visitors over the years included Frank Sinatra, Andy Warhol, Candace Bergen, Warren Beatty, Diane Keaton, Madonna, Steve Martin, Bernadette Peters, Hillary Clinton, etc.
It’s wonderful,!
That’s living. New York is the only place to live if you have money and you’re into the arts. They say only city to live in besides NY would be Paris.
Reminds me of Kensington Palace apartments back in the 80’s.
Jackie came from a different generation, where wealth mattered. she was also from old money and generational wealth. She was smart, and she did what she had to do. Try living with out money these days and especially in NYC.
The photos don't seem to match the description of the home
THE PHOTOS DON'T MATCH THE DESCRIPTION
🎉q elegancia maravilloso
Wonder how much was spent on renovation, furnishing etc.
I named my tabby kitty( camelot.. he was the perfect love of my life. I miss him everyday. He was (perfect)
Saw her taking walks all of the time when I was going to Central Park when I was a kid. Used to wave at her. She would chat with us kids. When I got older, I used to see her handsome son biking. He was so yummy!!
He’s still alive BTW.
Yummy? What are you, 12?
@@WWGWGA-bi2rv Aww...so is Santa, sweetheart...😊
@@WWGWGA-bi2rv No, he and his wife died in a plane crash on their way to Martha's Vineyard
See my other comment. I met her while waiting for the light to change 5th Ave and Central Park
Loved seeing it, thank you! Aristo-classy, elegant, and personnel. Also somehow timeless, as one could see the actual life, lived! The comments are excellently completing the images and deepening the perception. Congrats🙂
I visited there a couple of years ago, it was covered in scaffolding
The look is Le Manoir Française. It is a pretty, slightly dry coloring and with charming chintzes. All in all in a dirty manic NYC this can be a magical European style haven. Her life was incredibly stressful and she lived in a goldfish bowl. Many can create this look on a smaller scale. Sans the stress.
Love this soft style of decorating very comfortable
I like it😊
We enjoyed that.
The Kennedys are a fascinating family to me. Although I don't buy into the whole Camelot narrative and how great things were for them, because we know things were not great on so many levels, they're still a very interesting sociological study on money, power, family, influence, affluence. They lived in a way that so many could never possibly dream of, but they also had so much tragedy that no one would trade even for all the privileges they had
She lived in Georgetown in Washington DC after leaving the White House. After being she and her children were constantly hound3d by reporters, she decided that the anonymity of NYC was better suited for her and her children.
She was a good mother!
Sister Parrish lived in the first floor duplex it was a town house in an apartment building
Happy holidays 🥳⛄⛄🥳
Yes it is spectacular. I would love to have met her.
So many wrong facts. That hall picture is not Jackie’s apartment. Mrs. Kennedy moved to Georgetown after the White House and lived in 2 houses before moving to NYC in 1964.
I agree, and the exaggerated tone, “beautiful this, luxurious that, elegant so and so” sounds so ridiculous!
I read a book called,"what would Jackie do",wwjd.😅it was helpful in a lot of wys!❤
Back when $200 k would buy a palace. Of course even in my Wonder Bread suburban world my folks got a 4 BR Colonial w 2 car garage on a big lot for $35 k in 1961.
The pictures are of Central Park West instead of East
Although the lady was not one of the most sympathetic women, I think this Appartement was quite elegant and comfortable. To me it is a look of how North Americans think north europeans live. Considering this was put together 40-50 years ago. It still stands up well today. That look is certainly better than the VIP‘s homes of today which all have a sterile hotel lobby look to them , a conveyer belt “luxury”, look which has to change every season. By the way was everything auctioned off after her death?
What makes you say she wasn't sympathetic?
This was even ,ore wonderful than i could have imagines.
I'm moving in. ❤
A life well lived, but oh so short. She was only 64.
What happened to all that stuff? Is the apartment a museum now or it was sold?
It wou.d be much better if the video and audio were matched.
It's not my style either, but it is very nice and elegant!❤
It’s cozier than Ibexpected
Isn’t that first photo of the hallway the same as the hallway of the Paleys’ apartment? Are these actual photos of her apartment?
Looks identical
Her apartment is exactly as she was. Stunning and classic.
Jackie was very smart. She decorated the White House. She spoke five languages. The Kennedy's has a lot of money. She was beautiful.
She's an iconoclast.

She was just your average social climber and if JFK didn't marry her who would have known her? Jackie rode on both husbands coattails!
Very amazing and if she would of been alive today she probably would of had the full latest technology of the internet wifi and the most high tech televisions of all. I can also imagine her driving around in her favorite car a BMW top of the line.
I chuckle at all the “it’s not my taste” comments from a bunch of mall shoppers who think Home Goods is the epitome of style and design.
@@lapislazuli7876She abhorred interior design.
Nah. They don't like old grandma, dark, outdated messes
I do.Her style was gorgeous.I wonder if the critics ever resd a book or oen any.
Uggh!
What happened to Ms. Onassis belongings after her passing? I always felt compassion for her.
@lynnclark4208 . Maybe her daughter Caroline, handled all that. Mother and daughter were very close.
Truly amazing woman as was her late husband a truly amazing man, she was a trailblazer for women's fashion and she had it nailed and so elegant... as for the New York apartment well it just smacks of finesse and style and what an incredibly intriguing family.
This is the tasteful home of a highly cultivated and cultured lady.
It’s beautiful
Thank you so much! I'm glad you think it's beautiful too!
A marvelous woman and a beautiful home…I expected nothing less!
2:31 What's with the books lined up on the table? Was she going to have a "Book Fair" in her apartment for the public?
Very pretty really!!🎉🎉🎉
feels suffcataing to me...the drapes ...the curtains...the walls...too much going on for my little mind...i cant breathe !!!!
It’s nice for a rich person
You described a dining room with a long table etc. and that's not the way she decorated the dining room. She had a smaller table and an informal dining room which was more of a french style room with a round table, but functioned more as an entertainment spot rather than the formal dining room in your narration. Get the facts and the information straight!
JFK Jr. was an incredibly handsome man. So tragic we lost him. And imagine how gorgeous his children would’ve been.
Jackie Onassis died May 19, 1994. It hasn't been "her" apartment for 29 years. Why are you bringing this up NOW?
She had such beautiful taste thank you for posting ,
Lee was the one with taste her houses and apartments are just stunning...Jackie new clothes but not decor
Agree!
Totally disagree
What an exquisite
Apartment. The
Way she carried
Herself was so
Lively, an graceful.we will
Miss her deeply.
What a beautiful home.
We agree!
One of americas great First Ladies.
She had GRACE. Other than that ; what did she really DO ??????????????????????????
Jackie Kennedy is one of the most influential First Ladies and a cultural icon in American history.
@@joannejacob1345 Why? We all feel very bad for the loss of JFK and many others but there is no way we could overlook she was a pushy gold digger and for all her pride what was she proud of? Jackie could be bought - marrying Onassis wasn't necessary. Jackie didn't even treat him with respect! She just wasn't a nice person...
I wasn't a great fan of the Kennedys, but Jackie was a good student of history and example of wise support of her husband's career. She wasn't an example of nouveau riche extravagance, she was modest, and she avoided grabbing headlines. I see a lot of envy and jealousy from people who want what she had.
She knew how to spend obscene amounts of money.
Exquisite taste.
Yes, this woman had very good taste
