What Can’t Eve Reid Do?

Eve Reid and daughter Claire, lounging at home, were on our first cover. That was eight years ago and the image still holds up as one of our best, don’t you think? Since then, she married Sotheby’s chairman Warren Weitman, bought an apartment in New York, and as an investment, purchased this fantastic example of 60s modernism by architect Glenn Galaway, who trained with Philip Johnson. Galaway designed this house for himself and it stayed in the family until Eve and Warren bought it last year. It’s a time capsule of design from the era, with the original paint, flooring and cabinetry. The kitchen hasn’t been touched. Eve put some money into it — shoring it up basically by fixing the roof and a few other necessary improvements. They located the original blue prints and documented it on paper and in photography.
