Apartment 1F, as seen in the hallway.
Gordon and Susan's apartment is the first floor apartment in the brownstone of 123 Sesame Street. The apartment was used as a hangout spot in the early Sesame Street episodes, particularly the kitchen and dining room area. According to Episode 3507, their apartment is number 1F.
In the first episode, Susan invites Gordon and Sally upstairs for some milk and cookies. They're joined by Bob, who hangs a picture on the wall, and Kermit the Frog, who watches Bob's magic trick.
The Sesame cast visit the apartment often in the early episodes, including Episode 0008 and Episode 0043. During the second season, Oscar the Grouch even had direct access to their kitchen using the dumbwaiter (as seen in Episode 0145). It wasn't until Episode 1126 that a new location of the apartment, the living room, was introduced.
Olivia, Gordon's sister, resided with them in the apartment during her tenure on the show. In Episode 2689, the apartment gets damaged in a fire started in the building's basement. Big Bird stayed there for two days while his nest was being rebuilt after a hurricane destroyed it (Episodes 3976-3980).
In Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, Gordon is seen hanging stockings for several people in the apartment, including Big Bird and Cookie Monster. Santa also visits the apartment and decorates it for Christmas.
Starting in Season 46, Elmo's apartment has taken its place.
