Building: 478 Central Park West

This elegant pre-war Condominium designed by Architectural firm Angell & Higginson and completed in 1900, is Renaissance Revival in style and is a statement on the otherwise distinguished Central Park West. A pair of buildings, 478 CPW and 480 CPW, stand seven stories tall, offer studios to five-bedroom homes, and are located between West 108th and West 109th Streets on Manhattan ultra-chic Upper West Side.

Surrounding 478 and 480 CPW, is all the Upper West Side has to offer, including many of NYC’s best dining experiences, the finest gourmet markets, and shops of every kind for all ages. Take in Central Park as you exit your lobby flanked by marble columns. The buildings sit on the Northwest section of the world famous, 840-acre (340 hectares) park, here on the north end of the peaceful greenspace, neighbors and tourist alike enjoy the Jackie Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, the North Meadow, the North Woods, a Conservatory Garden, and so much more including mature trees as far as the eye can see, stone arches and waterways. World-renowned museums and historical centers, including the iconic Beacon Theater and Lincoln Center with its twelve performing arts companies, are just a short stroll from home.

The buildings employ a live-in-superintendent and a part-time doorperson. Storage lockers and bicycle storage are available. There is a gym and a virtual intercom. Transportation, both subway lines and buses are found one block from your door. Those wishing to purchase may finance, subletting is allowed, and pets are welcome.
