Sara Delano Roosevelt Memorial House is a building that was built in 1908 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1] The house was used by Sara Ann Delano Roosevelt from its completion in 1908 to her death in 1941, and intermittently by Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Eleanor Roosevelt from construction to their sale of the house to Hunter College in 1943.
The house was closed in 1992 and reopened in 2010 after an $18 million renovation [2]. The building is currently used by Hunter College as The Roosevelt Public Policy Institute.
