Architect Bertrand Goldberg designed the 1950s Snyder House using prefabricated units shipped from Chicago
A Mid-Century Modern “marvel” on New York’s Shelter Island has sold for $12.95 million—a record price for the town at the eastern tip of Long Island—according to Sotheby’s International Realty’s East Hampton Brokerage.
Now that record has been shattered—and by an abode created from plywood and prefabricated housing units. “The natural materials provided a dramatic contrast to the glass-and-steel exterior of the main living space. The focal point of the house was a dramatic cantilever, composed of the prefabricated units, which jutted out over Long Island Sound,” the website continued. The site was eventually “recognized as a mid-century marvel, both in design and waterfront location, offering magnificent panoramic water views of West Neck Harbor and Long Island Sound.
