Overview of 168 West 86th Street

Built in 1923, 168 West 86th Street is a 15 story, 46 unit rental on the Upper West Side’s Broadway Corridor, distinguished by a light beige brick façade, decorative balconies, globe lanterns, and a canopied entrance. The pre war building has a **24 hour doorman**, a live in superintendent, and permits protruding air conditioners.

Apartments range from one bedroom layouts with home offices to expansive homes with formal dining rooms and multiple bedrooms. High ceilings, hardwood floors, generous closets, and open city views recur across the apartments, while larger residences often have separate living, dining, and kitchen areas. Renovated kitchens with full size stainless steel appliances, dishwashers, stone counters, and slate flooring are also represented, along with central air conditioning and **in-unit washer and dryer** installations.

The building has a laundry room and bike room, and pets are allowed. Its pre war layouts include unusually broad floor plans, including large four bedroom homes of approximately 2,400 square feet and apartments that retain staff rooms adaptable to office or guest use. Bay windows, beamed ceilings, decorative fireplaces, and quiet interior bedrooms appear among the building’s recurring residential details.

The address is central to the Upper West Side, with restaurants and sidewalk cafes along Columbus Avenue just south of the building. Central Park is a short walk east, while Riverside Park is also nearby; shops, cafes, and neighborhood services line the surrounding avenues.
