Building: The Hermitage

The Hermitage is an elegant 17-story Upper West Side residential building, located on West 72nd Street, between Central Park West and Columbus. This Hermitage is one of the few buildings on the Upper West Side that are both Pre-War and Condominium – meaning its resident enjoy a unique combination of Pre-War craftsmanship, detail and charm, while simultaneously enjoyed the ownership benefits and flexibility of a Condominium.

Originally constructed in 1928, the building was successfully converted from rental to condominium ownership in 2001. Today, apartments feature spacious layouts, high ceilings, herringbone floors, crown moldings and elegant prewar details. Building services include doorman, central laundry room and resident superintendent.

Location is one of the most coveted in the city, on West 72nd Street, between Central Park West and Columbus, steps from the Strawberry Fields section of Central Park, and in the center of the Upper West Side’s best shopping and dining.

The Hermitage is also well staffed, pet friendly and very convenient to transportation with easy access to the 1, 2, 3, B, and C subway lines.
