Description

Apartment 305/306 has been the studio of a well-known artist for five decades. It is a large duplex with an 18'9" tall ceiling and oversized windows facing North. With your brush strokes and your contractor or architect's direction, this can be transitioned into a lovely 3 bedroom home. Currently it is configured with 2 bedrooms, one with a separate library space.

In addition, Apartment 305/306 can be combined with Apartment 303/304 to create an expansive 5+ BD home with private outdoor space (see separate listing). It can also be combined with Apartment 307 to create a 3+ BD home with a shared terrace.

Built in 1917 and designed by the architect George Mort Pollard as a home for artists, the Hotel des Artistes is a majestic 18-story building with a Gothic-style facade featuring charming gargoyles of painters, sculptors and writers. Among its former residents Noel Coward, Isadora Duncan, writer Fannie Hurst, Alexander Woollcott, Norman Rockwell and Joel Grey.

Hotel des Artistes is a full service cooperative offering a full-time concierge and elevator operator, a swimming pool, a squash court with a basketball hoop, two workout rooms as well as a charming high-walled roof deck. A new French-American inspired restaurant, Air Cafe, to open in late 2026, will offer romantic indoor dining among the Howard Chandler Christy murals of dancing nymphs, as well as room service — all at a discount for des Artistes residents. Ideally located on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the Hotel des Artistes is close to the nature of Central Park, the cultural events of Lincoln Center and boutique shopping and popular dining on Columbus Avenue.
