The Eldorado at 300 Central Park West became a co-op in 1982 and was designated an individual Landmark in 1985. In 2000, it underwent a complete restoration of its historic exterior.

It was completed in 1930 and was designed in the Art Deco-style by Emery Roth. Occupying a full block between 90th & 91st Streets, the Eldorado remains one of the most gloriously imposing on Central Park West. Residences are notable for their elegant layouts and large-scale rooms, which all have 10-foot ceilings. The 216 units tend toward one to three bedrooms, although a number of larger duplexes and triplexes exist; the towers generally have only one apartment per floor. All residences have been updated with modern windows, bath fixtures and kitchen appliances, although a few still feature the prized original steel and glass kitchen cabinets that are a signature of the era.

The Eldorado contains a courtyard, a garage, a children's playroom and a fitness center with a basketball court.
