Description

NOTHING COMPARES TO THIS ONE

A spectacular, one-of-a-kind environment for city living.

A corner apartment in a 15-story building at the corner of Central Park West and 67th Street.

This is a pre-war neo-Renaissance-style studio structure erected in 1918 with 69 apartments, each one unique -- and this one deemed "the best of them all."

The heart of the living space is a gorgeous great room with a wood-burning fireplace and 23.5-foot-high ceilings: the east wall features a single, ceiling-high, ten-foot-wide window with expansive views across Central Park; the north wall contains an identical window with open views of the park; and on the south wall a bookcase ascends almost to the ceiling.

Also on the lower level of this duplex is a formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen, spacious closets and a powder room.

The upper level has a dramatic mezzanine office space overlooking the great room and its large windows, and two bedrooms each with a bathroom en-suite.

BUILDING IN LANDMARKS

70 Central Park West
Frederick Mathesius, Jr. was educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, graduating in 1902. A member of the American Institute of Architects and the Architectural League, he primarily designed school and office buildings. Later in his career Mathesius acted as chairman of the New York Architect's Code Committee and was the Northeast Regional Chairman of the Federal Housing Administration. Charles Alonzo Rich, previously associated with the firm of Lamb & Rich, practiced independently after that firm's dissolution in 1899. In 1913 Rich and Mathesius joined in partnership. Their collaboration produced a neo-Renaissance-style studio building in the Upper West Side/ Central Park West Historic District.
