Beth Rudin DeWoody puts Upper East Side home back on market for US$12 million

Art collector Beth Rudin DeWoody has listed her Upper East Side co-op in Manhattan, New York, for US$12 million. The listing is her second attempt to sell the home since 2018 and carries the same asking price as that earlier listing, according to Curbed. ARTnews reported the return to the market in October 2026.
The apartment sits just off East 84th Street, in the Gracie Square pocket of Yorkville on the far eastern edge of Manhattan. It measures about 5,000 square feet inside a co-op, a New York building where buyers purchase shares in a corporation rather than owning the property directly. The building once housed socialite and designer Gloria Vanderbilt, as reported by the Wall Street Journal in 2018.
DeWoody had lived in the apartment for more than 30 years when she first offered it for sale. That first listing appeared in December 2018 with a US$12 million price tag, according to The Real Deal. ARTnews reported that the home was later taken off the market in 2020.
She is an heiress to Rudin Management, the New York property company behind her family fortune. DeWoody is widely known as a collector, with holdings reported at about 10,000 works. In 2018 she opened the Bunker, an exhibition space in West Palm Beach, Florida, to display part of that colourful collection, according to artnet News.
The price has not moved. Asking US$12 million again puts the 2018 figure back in front of buyers without adjustment. For a 5,000-square-foot home that has been held for decades, that flat number gives house-hunters and neighbours a simple comparison point.
What makes this stand out is the history attached to the paperwork. A long-held, art-filled home returning at its old price tells its own story about ownership, timing and when a seller decides to try again.
