Who has lived there?

Composer John Philip Sousa, and more recently Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott. Currently listed at $21 million through Melissa Olson of Douglas Elliman. "It's a residence with a remarkable story," Olson said.

Why Greenwich Village, and what does the Show House fund?

"This neighborhood has a real appreciation for design and architecture," said James Druckman, President of the Board of the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club. Since 1973, the Show House has raised more than $33 million for the Club, serving 14,000-plus young people across nine Bronx locations.

Why it matters

A six-level Greenwich Village townhouse with this much history gives this year's designers more to respond to, and the sale price adds a second story worth tracking.
