This 1,000-square-foot studio possesses a unique floor plan highlighted by 8-foot corner windows and Carnegie Hall views. The 19th-century co-op building at 205 West 57th Street, known as the Osborne, is located on Billionaires’ Row, and the historic building has seen its share of famous residents, including the unit just across the hall. Once owned by Leonard Bernstein, that apartment was purchased by actress Jessica Chastain in 2015. But the apartment’s Gilded Age luxury sets it apart from its somewhat generic condo neighbors. Asking $1,950,000, this remarkable studio boasts details like mahogany-clad walls and ceilings, original Tiffany window transoms, a mezzanine library, jade onyx fixtures, and an electric Murphy bed.

Casino mogul and billionaire Steve Wynn is selling his Central Park South penthouse for $90,000,000. The home is located on the 30th and 31st floors of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel at 50 Central Park South. The sprawling duplex, which Wynn picked up for $70,000,000 in 2012, measures 11,000 square feet and features unparalleled views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline. If the residence fetches the asking price, it would be the most expensive sale in the building’s history.

Asking $12,200,000, the three-bedroom on the 41st floor of One57 seemingly hovers over Central Park, with the home’s floor-to-ceiling windows in the 39-foot-long living room providing a near-perfect view of the iconic greenspace.

Central Park Tower, the world’s tallest residential building, has officially unveiled New York City’s most elevated (literally) private club on the condominium tower’s 100th floor. Perched more than 1,000 feet above Billionaires’ Row, the high-flying portion of the building’s Central Park Club offers residents of the building’s 179 condominiums a suite of private dining and entertaining spaces with incomparable views. Extell Development Company’s 1,500-plus-foot-tall tower is also home to the Nordstrom flagship retail store located at its base.

On the 12th floor of the iconic copper-topped Hampshire House co-op at 150 Central Park South, this 2,640-square-foot residence has a parkside seat and the views to match. Asking $5,995,000, the three-bedroom (or two bedrooms and a dreamy den) classic seven is a combination of two units for an unusually spacious layout, rooms to spare, and an alternate floor plan in case you need ideas on what to do with all of them. Pre-war bones, a private south-facing balcony, and warm-toned herringbone floors tie it all together.
