Designed by renowned architect Robert A.M. Stern and completed in 2008, 15 Central Park West stands as one of Manhattan's most prestigious residential addresses. The development consists of two limestone towers: "The House," a 20-story building directly fronting Central Park, and "The Tower," a 43-story structure positioned mid-block. Built on the former site of the historic Mayflower Hotel, this full-block complex between 61st and 62nd Streets houses 202 residences and sold out rapidly for approximately $2 billion, establishing itself as the city's premier luxury condominium.
The building has attracted an impressive roster of high-profile residents, including Denzel Washington, Robert De Niro, Sting, Alex Rodriguez, Lloyd Blankfein, and Mark Wahlberg. Most notably, the building made headlines when Ekaterina Rybolovleva, daughter of Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, purchased Sanford Weill's penthouse for $88 million in 2011, setting a record as the highest individual real estate transaction in New York City history at the time. Weill, the former Citigroup chairman, donated the proceeds to charity as part of his downsizing within the same building.
Residences typically feature 10 to 14-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and herringbone hardwood floors, with 90% of units offering direct Central Park views. Common apartment amenities include marble bathrooms with radiant heated floors, top-of-the-line appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele, and custom-designed closets and built-ins. The penthouses are particularly spectacular, with some spanning 5,000 to 6,000 square feet and featuring terraced duplexes. Many units also include individual wine cellars and separate staff quarters.
The building's amenities rival those of a luxury resort, including a 14,000-square-foot fitness center with a 75-foot skylit lap pool, a residents-only restaurant with butler service, a private screening room designed by Theo Kalomirakis, library, billiards room, and individual wine storage. The development features two distinct lobbies—one facing Central Park with dual fireplaces and paneling, and another accessed through a cobblestone motor court with valet parking. With over 40 full-time staff members providing white-glove service, 15 Central Park West has maintained its reputation as the epitome of luxury Manhattan living.
