Overview of The Vaux at 372 Central Park West

The Vaux, built in 1961 at 372 Central Park West, is a 19 story red brick condominium tower with 414 apartments that forms part of the larger Park West Village complex. Named after Calvert Vaux, co-designer of Central Park with Frederick Law Olmsted, the building was designed by the prestigious architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in the International Style. As part of one of the city's most controversial urban renewal projects, The Vaux exemplifies the "tower in a park" concept with beautifully landscaped grounds and abundant open space directly across from Central Park.

The building offers comprehensive amenities including 24 hour concierge service, an on-site health club, children's playroom, residents' lounge, modern laundry facilities, bike storage, and parking. Many apartments feature private terraces or balconies with Central Park views, hardwood floors, and abundant closet space. 

The building is located directly across from Central Park and steps from the Columbus Square retail complex, which houses Whole Foods, Target, Sephora, and other major retailers. Transportation access is excellent with the B/C and 1/2/3 subway lines nearby, plus crosstown bus service. The building is noted for its relatively low common charges and pet friendly policies.
