Straus Park is a 62 unit condominium completed in 2005 on the site of the former Olympia movie theater at 2770 Broadway and West 107th Street. Designed by Randolph Gerner of GKV Architects and developed by The Clarett Group and Prudential Real Estate Investors, the 22 story red brick building features a distinctive curved corner with glass balustrade balconies at its northwest edge, directly facing Straus Park. The intimate scale of the building is notable, with only two apartments per floor on the top five floors and a maximum of four units per floor throughout, creating an unusually private residential environment for a full service Manhattan condominium.
Apartments range from two to five bedrooms, with many units featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, 10 to 11 foot ceilings, and flexible layouts that allow living and dining rooms to convert into additional bedrooms. Common features include in-unit vented washers and dryers, cherry wood cabinets, marble countertops, stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, and Italian Carrara marble bathrooms with Waterworks fixtures. Twelve units have gas burning fireplaces, and select apartments offer private terraces, some quite expansive. Upper floor units provide views of the Hudson River, Central Park, and surrounding architectural landmarks, while lower units overlook the tree lined streets and Straus Park itself.
Building amenities include a 24 hour doorman and concierge, fitness center, children's playroom with books and video library, bicycle and stroller storage, and two landscaped roof terraces. Private storage bins are included at no additional cost for residents. The location offers exceptional access to three major parks: Riverside Park one block west, Morningside Park nearby, and Central Park a short walk away. The neighborhood provides proximity to Columbia University, numerous cafes and restaurants along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue, and convenient public transportation via the 1, B, and C subway lines. Primary residence owners benefit from a 17.5% tax abatement.
