Overlooking the building's serene inner courtyard garden, this tranquil apartment has high ceilings, open skyline views, and is bathed in beautiful light from gorgeous double exposures, both north and east. The renovated windowed kitchen, pantry and service entrance adjoin a spacious dining alcove with an east facing window. The Master bedroom suite is adjacent to a separate dressing room and the original "black and white" bathroom is in superb condition.

Commissioned by the Rockefeller family in 1936 for renowned architects Wallace Harrison and Andre Fouilhoux, it became a New York City landmark in 1984. Come witness the restored magic, and see what the buzz is all about at The Rockefeller Apartments, a full service coop in the heart of Manhattan.

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.
