Enter the pinnacle of Manhattan luxury. 220 Central Park South NYC is a private haven for residents who seek quiet, timeless luxury in one of the most coveted addresses on Billionaire’s Row.
Unmistakable Sophistication at Manhattan’s Core
220 Central Park South redefines skyscraper living. Soaring above the city with sweeping views of Central Park’s beauty, this is a residence of discreet refinement. Clad in silver shadow limestone that exudes classic pre-war prestige, it stands apart from today’s glass towers, joining the lineage of buildings that have framed the park for generations. Every detail speaks of craftsmanship and unparalleled grace.
The Elegance of a Villa, the Majesty of a Tower
220 Central Park South comprises two distinctive spaces, created by acclaimed architect Robert A.M. Stern, and united to form one prestigious address. Together, they offer a unique combination of refined intimacy and commanding scale.
Bordering the leafy avenue of 58th street, the 18-story Villa is a townhouse-like residence offering ultimate privacy among iconic neighbors. Behind it stands the Tower — a slender high-rise providing sky-high living with unobstructed views of Central Park.
Both buildings blend harmoniously, connected by an arcaded passage and sharing a pattern of dramatically varied fenestration and window groupings accentuated with Juliet balconies, set-back terraces, and ornamental metalwork.
It’s an architectural composition that forms a one-of-a-kind address reserved for those who value both discretion and distinction.
Property Crafted for Those Who Live Above It All
With only 118 residences, the homes at 220 West 58th Street offer a level of exclusivity rarely found in Manhattan. Each has been crafted meticulously by designer Thierry Despont, world renowned for his rich sense of history and heritage, and for bringing a refined elegance to the grandest of homes. Every room embodies the building’s philosophy of “livable luxury”, marrying opulent style with effortless everyday comfort.
Choose between the quiet refinement of the Central Park Villa, the rarest of the building’s homes offering less than 15 tranquil residences. Or, experience the dramatic height and skyline vistas of the Tower’s many light-filled apartments.
Interior Detail Shaped by Luxury and Legacy
Your home at 220 South Street exhibits the very best in interior excellence. Every detail is chosen by erudite French designer Thierry Despont and is finished with rich oak herringbone flooring, custom millwork, and kitchens and bathrooms clad in exquisite marble. These enduring natural materials are rooted in classical sophistication yet built for modern living.
Complementing these fine details are ceilings soaring beyond 10 ft, and full height windows that bathe each room with light and draw the outstanding natural beauty of Central Park into your private retreat.
A Rare Selection of Bespoke New York Residences
Beyond their architectural distinction, each residence offers unparalleled possibilities. The building offers expansive full-floor homes and inspiring multi-level duplexes or penthouses, and even the most rare opportunity to combine units into your ideal complex. Each and every space is designed to satisfy the most discerning tastes. Your home is a personal canvas, allowing you to shape layouts and details to perfectly reflect your lifestyle and vision.
Here, exclusivity meets scale and individualization, ensuring no two homes are alike. 220 Central Park South is truly a singular address in New York.
