Please view the Matterport video tour to virtually walk through this historic loft.

18’ foot high ceilings & 15’ tall windows overlooking Bryant Park, in a quietly elegant prewar building make this historic loft space truly one of a kind in a sea of look alike new construction.

The loft is presently approximately 800 sf with the ability to build up to an additional legal 400+ sf mezzanine. (See drawings.)

Originally, this apartment was half of the library in the prestigious Engineers Club, built by Andrew Carnegie in 1907. The space still has the original millwork that has been preserved and left in place and the huge marble fireplace that was a gathering spot for the clubs illustrious members, like Mark Twain, Thomas Edison, Cornelius Vanderbilt , President Herbert C. Hoover and Nicola Tesla, to name a few …

The elevator opens onto a spectacular landing that serves only one other tenant. It has 20’ high ceilings and a marble staircase that provides an impressive welcome to your guests.

The beautiful Beaux Arts building boasts a handsome limestone lobby with an grand marble staircase, but the intimate, old world, club like feel of it’s original incarnation remains intact. There is a 24 hour doorman with a reception desk to receive packages and assist your guests, a live in superintendent and a full time porter staff.

Located in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in NYC, there is a Whole Foods Market just 1 short block away. Every possible subway, train or bus is at your doorstep, while the park is like your personal back yard. Steps off 5th Avenue and just minutes to Chelsea, the High Line, Soho and Theatre district, you are close to everything but come home to the gilded age in this one in a million home.

The loft space has been brought down to the bricks by the current owner, so there are no surprises. The electric has been upgraded to 220 amps to serve an HVAC system that is possible in this apartment and all new wiring in conduit has been brought around the entire space. The one common wall has been insulated and finished in “Quiet Rock” professional soundproofing sheetrock (floor to ceiling 18’ X approximately 32’ ) so the hard part is done.

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.
