The Octagon
Roosevelt Island is a community located in the East River between Manhattan and Queens. Widely associated with its namesake, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the island has a deep history. Today, preservation efforts seek to maintain the island’s historic landmarks for future generations. Originally built in 1834 as the NYC mental health hospital, The Octagon is one of those landmarks.
After suffering two fires in 1955 and again in 1982, in 2006, the structure was restored and adapted to a multi-family property. It’s second restoration began in 2014 when Bozzuto Management and BentallGreenOak teamed with Hartman Design Group to transform this residential community into a modern, highly amenitized haven for NYC residents.
