Sales have officially begun at 350 West 71st Street, a boutique Upper West Side condo-offering brought to market by DNA Development and Stribling Marketing Associates. As we previously covered, 38 contemporary residences are being carved within a pair of landmarked turn-of-the-century buildings on one of Manhattan’s most sedate blocks. Positioned on an intimate cul-de-sac steps from Riverside Park, the Hudson River waterfront and the 72nd Street subway station; the project offers a rare blend of genteel urban living in proximity to many of the city’s most thriving districts.
The first homes to come online are seven two- and three-bedrooms priced from $1.775 million. Floor-plans show buyers will enjoy gracious layouts that naturally flow from calming foyers to grand great rooms measuring up to 27 feet wide. The in-demand designers at DXA Studio are in charge of the overhaul, where in addition to the brand-new layouts, the team is restoring the elaborate brick-and-limestone façades heightened by a pair of stately entryways and a roof-line balustrade.

According to the sales team, each home will be fitted with white oak floors, new wood windows from Pella Architect Series and solid wood door. All units also have zoned climate control, a washer-dryer, and ample storage space. All master bedrooms have en-suite baths, and some have a large walk-in closet.
Kitchens feature a full-suite of integrated appliances from Miele and are fitted with Italian white oak cabinetry, leather-wrapped door handles and stone slab countertops, backsplash and center island.
Seven homes will have their own private outdoor area. These include three duplexes with garden terraces ideal for intimate gatherings or quiet relaxation. All residents will have access to a landscaped rooftop terrace with a furnished dining area, gas grill and lounge seating. Other amenities include a wood-paneled library, children’s play room, tenant storage (available for purchase), and a gym with state-of-art machines, free weights and Peloton cycling equipment.
The initial availabilities pencil out to an average of $1,754 per ft² which compares favorably to the $2,116 per ft² average we recorded in our May Monthly Market Report. Prices across the Upper West Side’s Riverside Drive/West End Ave.-corridor have steadily risen over the years with recorded closings coming in at an average of $1,580 per ft². Why the consistent growth? Aside from the new, glassy towers at Waterline Square new development has become a rarity in the neighborhood, mostly due to stringent landmarking protections
