Modern Masterpiece on Central Park

2 East 88th Street, 10th Floor New York, New York 10128 États-Unis

Perched high above Fifth Avenue, this extraordinary Full-Floor Residence is located in one of the most prominent Cooperatives in all New York City.

This move-in, Modernist home that translates Downtown sensibilities into an Uptown context, was architecturally designed by AD100 2023 Hall of Fame winners, SheltonMindel and Associates. The architecturally significant custom design resulted in an exquisite, refined, minimalist residence blended with glamour and restraint. The 10 rooms curated with opulently rich and reflective materials have simple and clean architectural lines and the residence was fittingly showcased in Architectural Digest.

The 10th Floor residence boasts nearly 50' of Fifth Avenue frontage from 25 windows, showcasing dramatic views from all major rooms of Central Park, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir and Frank Lloyd Wright’s spiraling Guggenheim Museum. The stunning exposures are above the tree line and unique in offering both West and North open views. This incredible architectural masterpiece is further enhanced by 11' ceilings, two Wood Burning Fireplaces, custom Art Gallery walls, recessed ceiling and floor lighting, custom white resin and black wenge-wood floors and all framed by white plaster beamed ceilings and walls finished in a glossy lacquer.

Enter through a Private Landing into a glass cube vestibule exhibiting a custom video art installation by Jennifer Steinkamp. The 28' x 7' Grand Gallery wraps around the cubelike entrance area linking public and private spaces through five egresses that lead into Main Rooms and form a sense of “floating in space.”
