PetrUcelli Residence

The project scope is to design a residence for Anthony Joseph “Tony” Petrucelli (1940-2010) and Nina (Mann) Petrucelli (1943-). Born in New York City, Tony is an accomplished commercial photographer – who later makes his mark in advertising during the 1970s and 1980s. Nina Mann is the daughter of director Anthony Mann, a Ford model and a dancer in the Merce Cunningham dance troupe.
The project site is a stretch of beach that has only two houses on it at the time, both by Charles Gwathmey - the John Steel Residence, aka Steel Residence I and the Arthur/Ruth Steel Residence, aka Steel Residence II. The only thing on the site at the time the house is constructed are potato fields.
The project is under construction in 1971.
In 2004 an accessory dwelling unit is built on the property.
On September 28, 2007 the residence is sold for $13,200,000 USD to Surfside LLC.
Anthony Joseph “Tony” Petrucelli passes away on July 24, 2010.
On June 13, 2022 the residence is listed for rent for $400,000 USD.
On August 1st, 2022 the listing is removed.
On November 17, 2022 the residence is listed for rent for $400,000 USD.
