The Upper West Side still has the grand appeal of old New York City.
It’s a diverse neighborhood of countless artisans, endless entertainment, gorgeous brownstones, gourmet restaurants and groceries, overflowing bars, and the great escape—Central Park. The only drawbacks are aging buildings and a shortage of new housing.
Upper West Side housing comes at a premium, if you can find it. Professionals, students, artists and empty nesters are eager to move into the neighborhood and developers are hustling to accommodate them—with rare new residential buildings or condo conversions with modern amenities.
The neighborhood’s latest conversion, 175 West 95th Street, is fresh on the market and a sight for sore eyes. Let the tours and bidding commence.
