Langone family buys Upper East Side carriage house for $10.75M

A trust linked to Home Depot co-founder Ken Langone has purchased a historic carriage house on New York City’s Upper East Side for $10.75 million. The property, located at 121 E. 83rd St., served for decades as the home and studio for legendary photographer Carl Fischer.

The buyer is identified in city records as the Article IV Trust for Bruce Marshall Langone, one of Ken and Elaine Langone’s sons. The trust was established as a 2025 irrevocable grantor retained annuity trust (GRAT), with Ken, Elaine, and Bruce serving as trustees.

The property was sold by Carl Fischer Photography, Inc. It was previously listed on the market for $13.5 million in September 2023 following Fischer’s death at age 98.
