Property Description for 176 West 87th Street, 8-B

Welcome to the meeting of European design and spectacular sunshine... all on the thriving Upper West Side. No detail was overlooked in the gut renovation of this corner unit, from the recreation of the floor plan to create an open loft feel to the new plumbing and electrical to the exquisite finishes. The kitchen boasts a La Cornue custom oven, seamless Bosch dishwasher and Smeg refrigerator, and Carrera marble counters. The open concept is perfect for hosting big dinners with lots of space to entertain! Both windowed bathrooms were gutted and customized to keep the Pre-war feel but with clean, modern finishes and heated floors. White oak flooring enhances the light and bright sunshine streaming through the large windows over the romantic western views. It is perfectly positioned to ensure peace and quiet with a distance from the avenue. Indulge in dream closet space, including a walk-in closet that is large enough to house your own combo washer dryer. 176 W 87th St. is a full service 1916 coop built by famed architects Schwartz and Gross (known for The Mark Hotel and 55 CPW, the Ghostbusters Building!) with a 24-hour doorman, exquisite lobby, landscaped roof deck with open city views, newly renovated playroom and laundry room (although you do have your own washer dryer!) private storage and bicycle room. The residents face a few very difficult decisions: choosing among the many famed brunch hot spots in the area, such as Sarabeth's, Mermaid Inn, Barney Greengrass, or a freshly baked croissant from the Kirsch bakery on site. Follow that indulgence by a walk in beautiful Riverside Park or Central Park, as each is just a quick walk away. Easy transportation to 1,B,C trains and many major bus lines, including the crosstown. With so much happening on the UWS, it is easy to fall in love with the neighborhood. Brace yourselves...you're about to fall in love with the apartment.

Upper West Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Bracketed on its east and west borders by massive city parks, the Upper West Side (UWS) is known for its greenery, stately and elegant townhomes, safe streets and great schools, all of which make it a very desirable neighborhood for families. The UWS has maintained its community feeling, making it attractive to young professionals and retirees, both of whom want a sense of belonging in the place they call home.

Here you’ll find many apartment buildings, especially those along Central Park West. Historic architecture abounds, anchored by four luxury co-ops - the San Remo, Majestic, Century and Eldorado apartments - all of which have two towers on their interiors. They were built in the 1930s and their design was predicated on a 1929 building code that imposed a height limit on residences facing the street. There are also impressive row houses near Riverside Drive throughout the W 70 and 80 Streets. Above the 90s, you will find smaller buildings where walk-ups are very reasonably priced.

There are several world-class museums and venues dedicated to the performing arts. Plentiful dining can be found in the UWS. You will find everything from quaint Jewish delis serving up bagels and a schmear to sophisticated fine dining that has earned multiple Michelin stars, and everything you could possibly want in between. There is also abundant shopping and a vibrant nightlife.
