this is what 54.6 million dollars buys you in New York City
starting our tour in the entry Lobby where we have Neo Art Deco style inspired finishes
leading down the hall to the building elevators which take us up [Music] the elevator leads
right into the foyer of this duplex apartment and what's behind those two doors is one of
the best views in the entire city check this out
welcome to the great room we are perfectly centered on Central Park looking North this
view is the best view of Central Park of any tower on Billionaire's row I mean it looks
like the park is here in the great room and it's only from down here in Central Park that
you can really appreciate how colossal that this Tower truly is
[Music]
standing over 1400 feet above Manhattan's billionaires row this building was constructed
in 2021 on a site that is only 60 feet wide around the original Steinway and Sons headquarters
that was built in 1925.
now I want to talk about the views because this truly is dead center on Central Park
this building was designed to really feel like the park is inside your apartment looking
up north you have a sea of green with a view of all 834 Acres of Central Park zooming it
in you can see people hanging out after work lounging and playing in a freshly mowed sheep's
Meadow looking even further north you can see the rowboat Pond and the reservoir those
pristine views of all the Upper West Side the George Washington Bridge and in the distance
looking up into the hills of the Hudson Valley on over to the east you have the entirety
of the Upper East Side Harlem up there to the north and on a clear day like today you
can even see all the way up into Connecticut and the Long Island Sound not only do we have
the northern views we have this nice Corner moment here where we have views of the West
with the sun setting Hudson River especially at Golden hour like right now we're getting
into the prime golden hour and additionally we have these narrow Windows throughout the
building so you have so much sunlight even though we are facing north you have that Western
light coming into the space now as far as details in the gray room it is 50 feet long
the ceilings are 14 feet high so you have 14 foot panes of glass here floor to ceiling
no obstructions of your view as far as details inside below our feet we have solid oak which
has been smoked in this intricate inlay design here it is open concept so at the far end
we have your dining room seating for 10 and then again you have another Corner moment
where now we have views to the east so your sun rises the best thing in my opinion about
this corner is if we're looking down we are right on top of the Plaza Hotel in my opinion
one of the most famous landmarks in the city and we are well above it the perspective from
up here it never gets old this is now my second time checking out this space and it just keeps
getting better and better so from here I want to take you back into the Fourier and break
down some of these details So Below My Feet we have a white Macabre Stone here on the
floors and then that spiral staircase leading up to the second floor this is actually the
in-house elevator so this just serves the penthouse and I want to break down the details
so right here this is actually the hinge of a Steinway piano that they've put on the doors
just keeping with the heritage of Steinway Tower and speaking of the tower these are
hand cast bronzed handles that are modeled exactly after the tower on every single door
so these are the pocket doors that you saw in the beginning these are the same finishes
on every Steinway piano and if you notice they run the entire length here all the way
up to the ceiling for a frame of reference the elevators we came up in off to my right
here this is the entry powder room and look at this powder room this is a honey Onyx on
the floors and then about a quarter way up the wall with a standing honey Onyx vanity
and if you look this mirror runs up the walls and the entire ceiling around the other side
out of this bathroom we have those Northern views but in my opinion what's even more impressive
are the Southern views so again we have these pocket doors which could close off the space
and we have Southern views of the entire city so for the southern wing of the house we're
going to start off to my left here where you have the home office with again those views
of all Lower Manhattan and I also love how you have those little sliver Windows facing
west so you have that light just filling up the whole Space then on the other side we're
now going to enter the open concept kitchen first off we have a breakfast bar here again
with the views and here's the kitchen starting off we have a Cristal white quartzite on the
countertop with that waterfall Edge down to those oak floors and it also goes on the backsplash
I want to point out the cabinets because these are meant to mimic piano teeth the actual
keys of the piano for the cabinets we have gagging now six burner cooktop with my favorite
the pot filler making our way down we have the main sink here nice trough sink LED lighting
underneath gagging out Suite again here with the oven stainless steel massive refrigerator
freezer combo the typical what you would expect in a 54 million dollar apartment coffee maker
up in here the prep sink more of those piano keys on the Cabinetry so the kitchen actually
then connects to the dining room great room so you have easy access for service when you
are having a big meal here and I also want to point out on the other side we also have
another one of those very narrow Windows to let in that sunlight in the morning but not
for the good stuff for that opening shot so back through the kitchen we now have our Southern
views with in my opinion one of the most unique Terraces that I've come across in the city
this is your 309 square foot Southern facing Terrace and a lot of times people are wondering
if your neighbors can see into the apartment but as you can see the entire building has
reflective glass so all you see is a beautiful reflection of downtown Manhattan and again
these views you have the entire city at your fingertips [Music] thank you
[Music]
foreign [Music]
of this building it's capped by a 300 foot tall decorative steel Crown the building is
designed by shop Architects and a Neo Art Deco style featuring feathered setbacks and
residential Terraces like the one that I'm standing on right now the building is clouded
with glass on the Northern and Southern Exposures optimizing the views and it has these beautiful
glass terracotta panels and bronze finishes on the eastern and western exposures which
causes the building to Shimmer as the light changes throughout the day
[Music] this Terrace is also 50 feet long and as you can see now if you are brave you
can stick your head out the side here and get a view of Central Park so you can get
pretty much northern southern eastern and western views from this apartment the first
time I came up here and I stuck my head across there and I saw that I was like oh my gosh
but just for perspective you can see how expansive this Terrace is and as far as those views
I mean you have the entirety of lower Manhattan you even have the East River on a clear day
you see the ocean from here Hudson River Jersey Hudson yards Empire State Building One World
Trade Center the best views in the city even the Statue of Liberty it's a little hazy today
but you can see the Statue of Liberty on a clear day you'll see at night and I think
it is really the best of both worlds that you have those Southern views and those Central
Park views it's something special this building it really is after you as I grab my sunglasses
my parking slip fell out of my pocket could you imagine anyway heading back on in we're
now gonna head back to the main foyer and I'm going to show you now this staircase so
this is a custom staircase spiral staircase again with that white Macaba on the stonework
here heading up to the second floor of this duplex having stairs in a New York City Apartment
is one of the rarest things but to have a spiral staircase with this stone work on the
floor it's the next level so here's the landing on the second floor and if you pull back these
again are the two elevators that service the entire building and then this is the one for
the apartment so if you don't want to take the stairs you got an elevator but we're gonna
now check out the guest bedroom wing and immediately you're just greeted with those views again
so here we have two guest bedrooms we're gonna check out this one first off to my right decent
size here as far as the materials we have that oak on the floors again those views again
and light coming in from the West let's peek into the bathrooms here all of them have ensuite
bathrooms as far as materials here in the bathroom we have cristalo stone on the shower
the vanity the floors we have custom Studio Scofield design bronze fixtures cast by pe
Jurgen right across we have another guest bedroom
with those beautiful views here and the bathroom has the exact same finishes as the one we
just saw except we have a walk-in steam shower in here so same same but different but the
main thing again is the viewers imagine waking up with that view so back out into the second
level foyer again you have another shot of that beautiful staircase here behind these
two doors
welcome to the primary Suite here in Steinway Tower with your bedroom dead centered on Central
Park comment down below would you rather wake up to the southern views of downtown or to
Central Park I'm kind of torn right now but I'm leaning towards Central Park just because
look at that something I want to point out is there are no TVs in this space it's been
staged with no TVs just because the views the entirety of the park all the Upper East
Side looking up the Hudson River especially as the sun's setting and there's more to see
so we have pocket doors here this was actually another bedroom that they turned into the
primary Suite here so this is staged as another office and again we have another Corner moment
here where we actually have a western exposure so we're getting that golden hour sun right
now at Sunset and just watch how it fills the space up even though we're facing north
we still have natural sunlight coming into the space again the materials are all the
same so the floors are oak everything's the same this is the first bathroom in the primary
Suite with Onyx everywhere the floors the walls you've got a steam shower with a rainfall
shower head all brass here on the fixtures and again another one of those windows and
I think that's such a beautiful design feature having those windows on the west and the East
to have light into the entire space beautiful bathroom here which then leads into the first
closet heading across they call this the morning kitchen and I really like that term morning
kitchen versus a wet bar morning kitchen new term here from the morning kitchen we have
a second bathroom in the primary Suite here in Steinway Tower it's front and center we
have a custom antique polished metal freestanding tub by William Holland this is the focal point
of this space and it is just so beautiful with the greens of the park and the backdrop
there we've got vein white onyx walls and floors and oversized slabs throughout the
entire bathroom then we have a white onyx double vanity and then we have all custom
bronze fixtures and in this bathroom we have one of those yet again Corner moments here
overlooking the entirety of the city north east you can even see the west from here where
else are you gonna find this I'm not gonna get too comfy but damn imagine soaking in
this with that view and I haven't even shown you the shower yet so if you don't want to
take a bath you've got a shower room with that Onyx on the floors the ceilings the walls
everywhere two rainfall shower heads two high-level ones four sprayers on each side 12 shower
heads in this shower room you even have a mirror built in here on the door of your shower
and then on the other side we have the true Throne right there to get down to some real
business and if all this wasn't enough the building has some pretty wild amenities there's
a full length heated indoor lap pool a state-of-the-art gym I even checked out the Men's Spa which
has a shoe shining station a steam room a sauna and even a barber shop all in the building
there's so many details and I've only skimmed over a few like I just noticed there's inlaid
lighting at the trim of the ceiling here and if you really want to see something special
look at this Penthouse at night [Music] oh

[Music] foreign
[Music]
I don't know about you but when I see shots of New York City like that it inspires me
to no end and the beauty of sharing this home here on YouTube is that hopefully it inspired
you in some way and not necessarily to buy a 54 million dollar Penthouse but to achieve
whatever you want to in life make sure to subscribe to the channel if you're new here
again a huge thanks to the listing agents for letting us check out the space and with
that I will see you in the next episode
