Overview of Carnegie Hill Tower at 40 East 94th Street

Carnegie Hill Tower, completed in 1983, is a distinctive 32 story condominium at 40 East 94th Street that is one of the major postwar landmarks in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood. Designed by Edward V. Giannasa for developers Frederick DeMatteis and Charles Shaw, the 223 unit building features unusually angled façades and large bay windows that create spectacular views south and west. The building's development involved significant community input, with residents successfully advocating for design modifications that included preserving the nearby Alamo apartment house and creating an attractive landscaped mews with a waterfall that extends to 93rd Street.

Apartments feature distinctive angled layouts that take advantage of the unique architectural design. Units range from one bedroom apartments with triangular foyers and angled living rooms to expansive five bedroom residences with 40 foot galleries. Many apartments feature very large bay windows, and higher floor units offer sweeping views of Central Park, the Reservoir, and the city skyline. 

Carnegie Hill Tower offers white glove service with a 24 hour doorman and concierge, along with amenities including a recently renovated state-of-the-art fitness center, landscaped roof deck with panoramic Madison Avenue views, garage, bike room, and cold storage. The pet friendly building is ideally located just one block from Central Park, with easy access to Carnegie Hill's upscale boutiques and restaurants. Notable residents have included celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain, reflecting the building's appeal to discerning New Yorkers.
