A 50' expanse from the Living Room to the Formal Dining Room takes you from breathtaking southern views across 86th Street, over the Neue Gallery, Central Park, and the majestic prewar buildings of Central Park West to the glittering towers of Billionaire's Row. The north and east corner windows of… Read More the Formal Dining Room look to open sky over townhomes below and to beautifully planted penthouses across to 87th Street.
