This 9-story condominium project offers numerous amenities despite its spartan appearance. The building features a garden, sundeck, health club, and various resident services.
The Centra is a 9 story, 108 unit condominium completed in 1985 and designed by David Roth for Geloda-Briarwood and Vincent Riso. Located at the corner of West 89th Street and Columbus Avenue, the building sits just one block from Central Park, with convenient access to the tennis courts and reservoir. While the building's exterior is described as spartan and pedestrian in appearance, it offers a comprehensive amenity package including a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, fitness room with sauna, roof deck with Hudson River views, landscaped courtyard garden with bike storage, children's playroom, residents' lounge with ping pong table and lending library, and an on-site garage with direct building access.
Apartments at The Centra consistently feature in-unit washer/dryer hookups or installed units, generous closet space often including walk in closets, and open kitchen layouts. Units range from one to two bedrooms, with some two bedrooms convertible to three. Many apartments offer tree top views with various exposures, and half of the units face the attractive garden. Recent renovations showcase high end finishes including Carrara marble countertops, white oak floors, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances from brands like Bluestar, Fisher & Paykel, Thermador, and Bosch. One notable unit includes over 500 square feet of private outdoor terrace space.
The building's Upper West Side location provides easy access to multiple subway lines at 86th Street, nearby shopping at Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Fairway, and dining options including Momofuku, Levain Bakery, and Citarella. Cultural attractions like Lincoln Center, the Museum of Natural History, and the Beacon Theater are all within walking distance. The Centra is pet friendly and known for being impeccably managed with an excellent staff.
