Overview of The Dorilton at 171 West 71st Street

The pre-war, 12-story Dorilton at 171 West 71st Street is located in the Upper West Side at the northeast corner of Broadway. 

The Dorilton’s gated side street entrance is considered to be among the grandest in New York. It became an official city landmark in the 1970s and it transitioned from rental units to apartments in 1984.

Millions of dollars of careful restoration in the years since have brought its elaborate façade and rich interior spaces back to their original Edwardian splendor. Intricate wood molding, wainscoting and marble mantles can still be found in many apartments. Modern kitchens and bathrooms add to the Dorilton's mix of both pre-war and contemporary finishes.

Several apartments also enjoy projecting bay windows and Juliet balconies, among other architectural amenities.

Carter’s Review

"Although the Dorilton at 171 West 71st Street on the northeast corner at Broadway has not always been one of the city's most prestigious residential addresses, it is one of the most spectacular architecturally. 

The highly ornamental, 12-floor building was erected in 1902. "
