Broadway 2109

At the northwest corner of the Ansonia’s tenth floor, 10-144 takes light from the north, west and east. Its seven rooms, approximately 2,236 square feet, hold three bedrooms, three baths and two living rooms. Move right in, or restore the formal living room as a spacious fourth bedroom.

From the entry, you pass through the grand 20-foot formal living room, with a pair of west windows and a decorative marble fireplace, to the bright living and dining room. The 23-foot room has views north up Broadway and a west-facing bay with a slice of the Hudson River down 74th Street. The windowed eat-in kitchen opens to this room and is built around a 55-inch Lacanche range, with honed Brazilian Black soapstone counters, a Rachiele copper farmhouse sink and Rohl brass fittings, including a separate pot filler. 

The newly refinished white paneled cabinetry covers a Gaggenau refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher, and an under-counter freezer and drinks refrigerator, both by Sub-Zero. The living spaces have herringbone hardwood floors in white oak, 9’10” ceilings with cast-plaster crowns, raised-panel doors with Baldwin brass hardware, and built-in bookcases and window seats beneath divided-light windows true to the building’s original profiles.

The primary suite begins at its own door, where a walk-through dressing closet opens to a windowed bath with a Calacatta Gold marble vanity, a rain shower and a heated floor. A sitting room with a built-in secrétaire leads to the bedroom, with a walk-in closet, hardwood cabinetry and an open north view bracketed on both sides by the building’s Beaux-Arts facade. Two bedrooms on the east side look across the courtyard and share a Jack-and-Jill bath. The third bath, beside the formal living room, was thoughtfully restored to period rather than replaced, with its pedestal tub, sink and tile all refurbished and an English Lefroy Brooks faucet. The entire apartment was gut renovated, with new electrical, plumbing and central air, and has a laundry and mechanical room with full-size washer and dryer. All light fixtures stay.

The Ansonia is a New York City landmark and a full-service condominium, with a doorman, concierge, roof deck, storage and bike racks. Pets are allowed, and the privately run garage has in-building elevator access and EV charging. Fairway and Citarella are across 74th Street, Trader Joe’s and the 1/2/3 are at 72nd, and Riverside and Central Parks are each a short walk.
