Lady GaGa childhood house in New York City | Pictures, Rare Facts

Long before becoming known to the world as multi-talented musical performer Lady Gaga or as Morther Monster to her millions of endearing fans, she was little Stefani Germanotta growing up in Manhattan, New York City. In 1993 when Stefani was seven years old, her parents Joseph and Cynthia Germanotta purchased an apartment at The Pythian Condominiums, where the future starlet would spend the majority of her childhood.

Lady GaGa's childhood home - the Pythian condos in New York City.

Built in 1927 and located on Manhattan's upper west side, The Pythian's Egyptian-themed facade is a real eye catcher. The Pythian, which was converted into apartments in the 1980's, is eleven-stories tall and has 88 apartments.

At twenty years old, Lady GaGa was hired by Interscope Records as a songwriter. In late 2008 Lady GaGa released her debut album The Fame, which includes the hit songs "Just Dance" and "Poker Face".

Lady GaGa's father is the owner of a Wi-Fi company in New York City.

In June 2014, Lady GaGa's parents placed the condo on the real estate market for $12,999,000 but were unable to sell it. Below are photos of the condo when it was listed.

I'm an expert at collecting fun, rare facts about celebrities. When I'm not blogging about celebrities, I do a lot of adventuring on forest trails where I photograph Florida wildlife like this big alligator in a lake (2022), and a gopher tortoise (2021) below.
