Navigating the New York City real estate market can be quite daunting for first-time homebuyers. A prime example is the Upper West Side, where the median asking price of a condominium residence is $2.8 million. Once celebrated as a hub of middle-class Manhattan living and seen as a more affordable, creative alternative to the Upper East Side, the Upper West Side has swiftly transformed into a neighborhood of wealth, featuring competitive private schools, slick new high-rises, and an increasing number of single-family townhouse mansions.
Despite the influx of affluence, the area maintains its strong ties to the arts and academia, anchored by institutions like Lincoln Center, The Juilliard School, Fordham University, and Columbia University. While the upper echelons of NYC real estate can be found in Central Park-side buildings such as The Dakota, 15 Central Park West, and the San Remo, nestled along the area's many intimate landmark-protected side streets are stately, unassuming co-op buildings and charming multifamily townhouses that offer relatively affordable options compared to their more iconic neighbors.
