Central Park vistas via Nest Seekers
Central Park has always held a special place in the city's mystique for locals and tourists alike. It has been the site of countless picnics, proposals, and personal training sessions, and has emerged as an oasis of fresh air in this time of social distancing.
While "New York's backyard" is just a subway ride away for many, some lucky residents can practically step out the front door and into the park, or see it first thing in the morning. It is a privilege worth paying for - listings in Upper East Side and Upper West Side cooperatives are often priced to match their prestige, and condos along Central Park come to an average price of $3,640 per square foot (per CityRealty index). To that end, we present a list of penthouses with Central Park views, top-of-the-line interiors and amenities, and price reductions.
