Carnegie Hall is a concert hall in Manhattan, New York. The building is a U.S. National Historic Landmark. Carnegie Hall was built in 1890 and was designed by William Burnet Tuthill. Carnegie Hall has three separate concert halls. The Main Hall was renamed the Isaac Stern Auditorium in 1997, named after the violinist Isaac Stern. The main hall seats 2,804 people on five levels. The Zankel Hall is located below street level and seats 599. The Weill Recital Hall seats 268. The building is also the home to several residents, studios for performing and graphic artists, and the Rose Museum.Official Site: The Basics
Carnegie Hall announced they were going to renovate the space above the building in 2007. As many as 43 residents were moved from their apartments. One of the residents, 96-year-old Editta Sherman, refuses to leave. The renovations are intended provide new space for classrooms for the 115,000 students of music and art. Carnegie Hall says they offered to pay the relocation expenses for the tenants.CNN: Duchess of Carnegie, 96, Refuses to Leave Home (December 29, 2008)
