The Apple Bank Building at 2112 Broadway stands as one of the Upper West Side's most distinguished landmarks, occupying an entire city block between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue from 73rd to 74th Streets. Built in 1928 by the renowned architectural firm York & Sawyer in the Italian Renaissance palazzo style, this limestone-clad building originally housed the Central Savings Bank (formerly the German Savings Bank, founded in 1859). The building's four-story banking hall with cast-iron bats designed by Samuel Yellin remains intact at its base, while the top four floors were converted into an exclusive residential condominium in 2006 by Stahl Real Estate.
The building contains 28 unique condominium apartments, each designed by SLCE Architects with completely different layouts and spacious entry galleries. Residences range from 1,200 to over 4,000 square feet, featuring dramatic ceiling heights between 9 and 18 feet. Six apartments are duplexes with private roof terraces ranging from 284 to 461 square feet, while all units boast premium finishes including marble bathrooms with radiant heated floors, high-end appliances, and abundant closet space. The apartments showcase impressive proportions, with living rooms spanning up to 30 feet and some featuring multiple walk-in closets and house-sized laundry rooms.
Building amenities reflect its luxury status, including 24-hour concierge service, a fitness center located within the original bank vault, a pet grooming station, and secure bicycle storage. Notable residents have included NBA player Emeka Okafor and legendary entertainer Harry Belafonte. The building's prime location offers residents easy access to Central Park, Lincoln Center, and excellent public transportation via the nearby 1/2/3 subway lines at the 72nd Street station, though the building does not include a parking garage.
This full-service condominium represents a rare opportunity to live within a designated landmark that commands one of Manhattan's most prominent corner locations, overlooking the attractive Verdi Square Park and its express subway pavilion. The building's conversion preserved its historic grandeur while creating some of the most spacious and uniquely configured apartments on the Upper West Side.
