Gilded Age Penthouse Meets Tomorrow

Atop one of New York City’s most architecturally significant buildings, Penthouse C at Alwyn Court offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history-reimagined for contemporary luxury living.

Built between 1907 and 1909, Alwyn Court is a celebrated French Renaissance terra-cotta masterpiece-one of Manhattan’s most ornate and historically rich landmarked buildings. Its iconic facade and soaring 12-story atrium featuring trompe-l’oeil murals by Richard Haas are architectural treasures. Together, these continue to captivate artists, performers, and design lovers over a century later.

Penthouse C is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse (with a flexible third bedroom/home office) that is surrounded by a private terrace (spanning approximately 600 square feet), showcasing breathtaking views of Central Park and the city skyline. The seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living creates a true sanctuary in the sky.

Inside, the expansive living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, flanked by classic architectural columns and oversized windows that flood the home with light. A formal dining room is situated perfectly between the living room and kitchen. The kitchen features a dramatic skylight, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances-ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The primary suite offers peaceful views, ample closet space, and a serene en-suite bath.

Additional highlights include two-zone central air conditioning, generous storage, and graceful proportions throughout. In-unit washer and dryer subject to board approval.

This full-service co-op has a live-in resident manager, full-time doorman, private storage that comes with the apartment, laundry room, and bicycle storage. The building allows pets, pied-a-terre, 65% financing, and there is a 2% Flip Tax Paid By The Seller.

Penthouse C is truly the crown jewel of Alwyn Court, offering an unmatched blend of historical grandeur, privacy, and open-air living at the city’s cultural crossroads-just moments from Central Park, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Broadway, and Manhattan’s finest dining and shopping.
