Property Description for 33 West 56th Street, 8-DE

Residence 8DE provides a very rare opportunity to combine two beautiful units on the 8th floor of the Centurion Condominium. Such a combination could afford a beautiful foyer, 3 large bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 powder rooms, a large kitchen and dining area, as well as a stunning south-facing living room with a dramatic 17 foot ceiling. This spacious and elegant residence would feature dual exposures to the north and south providing ample natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows in all bedrooms, dining area, and living room.

The current kitchen is beautifully finished with custom natural walnut cabinetry, a solid clear glass countertop, and glass tile backsplash. It is equipped with premium appliances by Sub Zero, Wolf, Viking, and Bosch. Features of the master and guest baths include polished marble floors, soft gray honed marble vanities, Kallista tubs, and Kohler sinks. All residences feature teak floors, and the convenience of Bosch Axxis washer and dryer.

Combined, the apartment would occupy both western corners of the building, making the layout easily customizable to the specific taste of the prospective buyer. The listing price does not include the costs of construction.

33 West 56th is an elegant and exclusive condominium enviably located amid the galleries, luxury merchants, world-class restaurants, and hotels of one of Manhattan’s most prestigious and cosmopolitan neighborhoods. Ideally located at 33 West 56th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, the Centurion is the only ground up condominium project in New York City designed by Pei Partnership Architects and I.M. Pei, the visionary architect behind some of the world’s most imaginative, graceful, detailed, and refined structures.

Among Pei’s master works are the Pyramid at Le Grand Louvre in Paris and the Four Seasons Hotel in New York. In creating the Centurion, I.M. Pei sought to update a century-old tradition of important New York residences distinguished by handsome silhouettes, rich materials and gracious appointments.

Midtown West | Manhattan

Quick Profile

People, yellow cabs, bright lights, big crowds, 24-hour eateries and just about every type of store imaginable. it’s a frenetic buzz that only a few places on the globe can offer. And that’s just one part of it. Midtown West is the birthplace of hustle and bustle and it’s bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 8th Avenue to the west, and 5th Avenue to the east. 

Midtown West is not as residential as other neighborhoods in Manhattan. The bustling part of Midtown West is 42nd Street between Times Square and 8th Avenues where the retail and office space, theatres, and attractions are. No matter what time of day it is, you'll always find activity there. 

Residential buildings lay near the western end of Midtown West beginning around 8th Avenue. 

Location, location, location. Of all the neighborhoods and enclaves of Manhattan, Midtown West is perhaps the most commutable place to live, visit, or work. It contains one of the highest concentrations of subway lines in the Big Apple. A, C, E, N, Q, R, 1, 2, 3, and the 7 train. The transit system feeds the streets with commuters from everywhere. The Port Authority Bus Terminal and nearby Penn Station adds to the number of people that flood Midtown on any given day. 

It’s one of the easiest places in all of Manhattan to navigate because it’s a true grid. Uptown, street numbers go up. Downtown, street numbers go down. It’s the same concept from east to west. You really can’t get lost in Midtown West.
