The Astor
The Astor is the historic building originally built by William Waldorf Astor in 1901, has been restored to receive modern upgrades while preserving the pre-war character for which Manhattan’s Upper West Side is known. It offers spacious homes that boast tons of natural light, study nooks and oversized bathrooms with soaking tubs, plus family-friendly amenities such as a children’s playroom that is fully equipped with games and activities. The building is surrounded by world-class educational and cultural institutions including the American Museum of Natural History, Lincoln Center and the Children’s Museum of Manhattan, and between two of the city’s most coveted green spaces, Central Park and Riverside Park. The Astor places residents just moments from some of New York City’s best private and public schools.

Positioned between Riverside Park and Central Park, 96+Broadway is the much-anticipated Upper West Side luxury condominium building that offers an elite level of amenities perfect for everyone in the family. The children’s playroom features a one-of-a-kind mural and an exciting climbing wall, as well as other stations. Other amenities include a music room featuring a baby grand piano and a pet grooming station, great for even your furry family members. 96+Broadway is surrounded by playgrounds, museums, theatres and more, ideal for the entire family.
Charlotte of the Upper West Side
Charlotte of the Upper West Side is one of the first new residential buildings to be constructed in the Central Park Historic District in the past 30 years. Considered to be the most sustainable condominium building ever built in New York City, it was designed by the award-winning BKSK Architects and engineered to meet the exacting standards of the German-based Passive House Institute. The state-of-the-art building boosts residents’ health, wellbeing, safety, and comfort. It features seven sustainably-designed full-floor residences that offer four bedrooms with expansive loft-like kitchen-living-dining areas perfect for relaxation, play, and more. Each home’s primary suite is intentionally tucked away from living spaces and other bedrooms for maximum privacy. Charlotte of the Upper West Side is just a few blocks away from neighborhood favorites and cultural icons like the American Museum of Natural History, Central Park, Children’s Museum of Manhattan, Riverside Park, and more.
212 West 72nd Street
212 West 72nd Street, developed by Centurion Property Investors and redesigned by Cetraruddy, features 126 new residences, a designated children’s playroom with brightly colored decor and children-sized furnishings including small tables and booth seating arrangements. A reading nook was also included to expose children to the enjoyment of reading and encourage learning, as the space is also open for children to complete their homework. Located at the iconic intersection at Broadway and 72nd Street, the building is just a stone’s throw from the 72nd Street subway station and Central Park.
