Property Description for 1801 Adam Clayton Powell Blvd, 1-E

The first open house for this apt will be March 6th at noon not February 28th as originally planned. Sorry for an inconvenience caused.

Anchored at the North End of Central Park, 1801 Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard (1801 ACP) stands tall welcoming all bikers, hikers, runners and motorists to Harlem. Built in1904, this historic gem is reminiscent of its time adorned with architectural detail of the period including a limestone based facade and ornate building entryway. The building was among the first of a trend of pre-war residential buildings built along "Upper Seventh” which extend several blocks north along the illustrious European-styled boulevard. Now gut renovated, this prewar 6 storied elevator building still preserves its old world charm with a beautiful marble lobby accented with handcrafted ceiling moldings and tiled lobby flooring—making this a very special place to call home.
The sprawling 4 bedroom 2 bath corner apartment is even more inviting; it yields approximately 1,462 sq ft of living space with XX inch ceilings. The apartment has three exposures east, south and west. Generous sized windows line the perimeter of the apartment; the apartment generates an enormous amount of southwestern light from dawn to dusk. This apartment is equipped with oak striped floors, an open kitchen that faces a formal dining room and extends into an open living room area. Both the living and dining area can be separated by French glass doors. In a separate wing of the apartment is the en-suite Master bedroom which has a generous walk-in closet. There is also a washer and dryer in the unit-- an added modern convenience to this contemporary styled home. Other apartment features include: ample closet space, cable & internet ready. Gas is already included in the low maintenance.
The most poignant feature about this apartment is having Central Park as a backyard! With Central Park at the door step, living here, one is steps away from the Harlem Meer the home of summer jazz concerts, the Charles Dana Discovery Center, Lasker Ice Skating rink and Olympic size swimming pool, the Conservatory Garden, a six acre formal garden, and, an unlimited use of the park for hiking, biking, yoga, meditation and romantic evening walks.
Harlem continues to be the capital for exceptional cuisine, music and culture. Legendary music venues include: the Apollo Theatre, noted jazz clubs, an array of international restaurants such as: Red Rooster, Sette Pani, 5 and Diamond, Jado Sushi, the Cecil and Cheri-- many of which feature acclaimed musicians and celebrity chefs. For culture, the Cooper Hewitt Design and Africa Centers are 1801 ACP’s newest neighbors. These new cultural establishments join long standing institutions such as: the Studio Museum in Harlem and National Black Theatre. The 1801 ACP neighborhood also offers gourmet supermarkets, organic shops and nearby shopping.
The transportation arteries make living here easy. 1801 ACP is conveniently located to ALL transportation, B/C/2/3 trains & major bus routes. It is Pet friendly (conditional) building.

Harlem | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The neighborhood called West Harlem by the locals is known as Manhattanville to neighborhood newcomers. The area is culturally diverse and might be considered a microcosm of the city as a whole. 

Columbia University has recently expanded into the area, which is attracting student residents from all over the world. Together with students from the City College of New York and young professionals fleeing higher prices in other neighborhoods, this influx of younger residents has brought with it more restaurants and bars on W 125th Street to serve this clientele. There are also new ventures, like a rock-climbing gym, to cater to the interests of these students and young professionals. At the same time, there are many small, family-owned shops and restaurants that have been anchors of the neighborhood for multiple generations.

The area has been through a housing upgrade, as older properties have been renovated and abandoned properties have been razed to make room for new development. There are still reasonably priced apartments available. Young professionals are finding that there is a certain cachet to living in West Harlem. It provides a convenient commute to the city and all of its amenities, while providing a sense of escape at the end of a long work day.

While rentals are popular with the student population, the young professionals are delighted to find pre-war brownstones, pre-war co-ops (including some income-capped HDFCs for lower- and middle-income buyers), and post-war condos that they can afford, although prices are rising. Some new low-rise developments, sporting virtual doormen and desired amenities, are cropping up.
