4. First Townhouse of FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt: 125 East 36th Street

Eleanor Roosevelt met FDR when he was studying at Harvard. In 1904, after FDR and Eleanor were married, they lived in a townhouse at 125 East 36th Street, a place FDR’s mother, Sara Delano Roosevelt, rented for them. Sara would have a lasting influence, or some say interference, in the couple’s lives.
