Property Description for 24 West 55th Street, 7-CD

Sprawling Art Deco home that consists of two oversized one-bedroom apartments, each with a dining area. There are two full bathrooms, a powder room, bounteous closet space, and oversized windows in all rooms looking north onto 55th Street. In true Art Deco form, there are curved windows at either end of the apartment. The spacious layout, measured at over 2,100 gross square feet, allows for a luxuriously spacious two-bedroom home with library or a substantial three-bedroom home with an oversized master-bedroom suite. Bring your architect!

The Rockefeller Apartments, consisting of 24 West 55th Street and 17 West 54th Street is a landmarked Art Deco cooperative built in 1936 by Nelson Rockefeller. The cooperative, with its substantial reserve fund, is replacing all of the windows and renovating the lobby and hallways, all with no assessment. PTAC units and W/D allowed within. Between the two buildings exists a lush and peaceful garden for residents. There is tremendous upside in this apartment and building. Once all renovations are complete, this will be a spectacular two or three-bedroom home in a truly mint Art Deco building in the most prime midtown location.

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.
