About this home
Condo · Built 1930 · Historic
The West Penthouse of the Gainsborough was reimagined and modernized in 2013 under the direction of renowned architectural firm Hoedemaker Pfeiffer. The result is a one-of-a-kind tribute to the legacy of our city. With sweeping western views, the brilliantly defined living areas are punctuated by arched windows, glimmering lights, pristine hardwoods, & a veranda that feels like a moment in Manhattan. The primary suite offers a sensible separation of the sleeping quarters across from an elegant bath, next to a detached walk-in closet and custom cabinetry. Secure covered parking, carefully manicured gardens, and an on-site manager who ensures the building and resident needs are met. Here, history and modernity dance together in synchronicity.
