Located at 72nd Street at Riverside Boulevard, the 31-story Heritage at Trump Place is arguably the finest of the Trump Place development.

Named after the goddess of the hearth, this handsome, 12-story building at 201 West 17th Street, is a condominium with 37 apartments and was converted from a loft building in 2001 by The Corcoran Group and Mark Blau.

The red-brick building, which is named Vesta 17, has a rusticated limestone base, double-height lobby with a glass canopy entrance, a concierge and no more than four apartments per floor, each with their own washer and dryer, large windows and high-speed Internet access. Bathrooms have limestone floors and "rainhead" shower spouts.

It has attractive retail spaces, but no sidewalk landscaping, no garage and no balconies. It is close to the Xavier School.

It has an excellent Chelsea location that has very good local shopping and numerous restaurants. It is close to both the Flatiron and West Village districts and there is good public transportation at 14th Street.

The SoHo Mews at 311 West Broadway is made up of two residences – one facing West Broadway and the other overlooking Wooster Street – that are separated by a private landscaped garden.

The 67 apartments include lofts, penthouses and private entry townhouses that feature large windows, high ceilings and wide-plane oak flooring. Custom kitchens have unique cabinetry and smoked matte glass, topnotch appliances and granite countertops. Bathrooms are equipped with double vanities and white marble floors and walls.

Amenities at the SoHo Mews include a 24-hour doorman, attended parking and a Drive 495-managed fitness center. 311 West Broadway is across the street from the SoHo Grand Hotel and is easily accessible to excellent public transportation, retail stores and many restaurants and cafes. TriBeCa, NoLiTa and the West Village are also nearby.

The 28-story Park 900 was completed in 1973 and designed by Philip Birnbaum with 124 apartments. Residents of the Upper East Side condo enjoy the service of full-time doorman, a concierge, elevator operators and a live-in super. Additional amenities include a circular driveway and an elegantly renovated lobby and hallways. There is an onsite fitness center and storage inside a common storage room, as well as a parking garage that can be accessed directly from the building.

The Park 900 is located at the corner of 79th Street and Park Avenue, minutes from Central Park, world-class museums, and upscale Madison and Fifth Avenue shopping and restaurants.

This very handsome cast-iron structure was erected in 1887 as the Hugh O'Neill Dry Goods Building and is one of the highlights of the city's "Ladies Mile" retail stretch along the Avenue of the Americas south of 23rd Street that flourished at the end of the 19th Century.

Designed by Mortimer C. Merritt, it originally had tall, beehive-style domes atop the almost cylindrical towers at the corners of 20th and 21st Streets. The domes were eventually removed but its conversion to 49 condominium apartments, completed in 2007, included their restoration.

The building's name is emblazoned in relief on its pediment.

It is the oldest and most handsome of the major department store buildings along Ladies' Mile and was complemented in scale and grandeur by the Siegel-Cooper Dry Goods Store at 616-632 Avenue of the Americas, which was designed by DeLemos & Cordes and erected in 1897, and by the Simpson Crawford & Simpson dry goods store at 641 Avenue of the Americas, which was designed by William H. Hume & Son and erected in 1900.

This building has a five-story base topped by a one-story pediment story in the center of the frontage along the avenue.

In an article in The New York Times, Christopher Gray noted that the building originally had four floors and that the fifth story was added in 1895, adding that "in 1906, the O'Neill store merged with Adams Dry Goods, a one-time competitor on the block to the north....But the merged company closed in 1907, as garment-manufacturing firms invaded the side streets and drove out retail patronage."

"By the 1920s all the giant stories had been converted to lofts and manufacturing. A 1940's photograph shows the old O'Neill store occupied by the Central Time Clock Company, a machinery exchange and similar businesses. By that time, the domes had been demolished," Mr. Gray wrote.

The condo conversion by Miki Naftali of Elad Properties included a two-story roof addition and was designed by Cetra/Ruddy and the plan was approved by the city's Landmarks Preservation Commission as the building falls within the Ladies' Mile Historic District, which was created in 1989. The property was acquired by Elad in 2003 for about $37 million.

The building's façade is highly articulated with Corinthian columns and pilasters and the cast-iron façade was painted white to have the appearance of stone.

O'Neill came from Belfast and opened a dry-goods store on Broadway north of Union Square after the Civil War and in 1870 moved his store to its present location, eight years before the elevated train appeared on the avenue. Demolition of the "El" began in 1938.

His new store occupied several modest buildings on the site that he had painted yellow with black lines and brown trimmings, according to Mr. Gray.

The restoration of the domes pleased many preservationists but their large bulbous forms in fact are more quaint than beautiful and the domeless building had a very appealing and modern affect. One could almost compare it to the purity and strength and good design of projects by architect Richard Meier.

The lower three floors of the building have taller and broader windows than those on the higher floors.

The addition of two penthouse floors, setback from the street wall, to the existing building results from a zoning lot merger and easement agreement with the Congregation of Shearith Israel, the owners of the Shearith Israel Cemetery on 21st Street.

The building is across the avenue from the landmarked Church of the Holy Communion complex, which is occupied by a nightclub.

This neighborhood is convenient to Greenwich Village, Chelsea, and the Flatiron District and abounds in restaurants. The area has undergone significant upgrading and several new residential towers have sprouted above 23rd Street in the former flower district along the avenue.

The area has good public transportation.

With 354 condominium apartments, the Chelsea Mercantile is one of the largest residential conversions in Chelsea. 

Apartments range from studios to four-bedroom lofts and vary in size from 856 to 3,069 square feet. Many units have exposed brick walls with nine-foot beamed ceilings and walk-in closets. Some penthouses have ceilings that rise between 11 and 13 feet as well as fireplaces, skylights and terraces. All apartments have state-of-the-art wiring and gourmet kitchens with stainless-steel appliances, black granite countertops, cherry wood cabinets and built-in garbage disposals. Master bathrooms have limestone walls and floors, deep soaking tubs and separate stall showers.

Amenities at the Chelsea Mercantile include a 24-hour doorman and concierge, valet and maid service, a fitness center with children’s playroom, an expansive planted roof deck with beautiful city and river views, a garage and a Whole Foods Market on the corner.

Located between West 24^th and 25^th Streets, 252 Seventh Avenue is in the heart of Chelsea. There is very good public transportation in the area and it is convenient to the Flatiron District to the east and Greenwich Village to the south.

Designed by the world-renowned architect Robert A. M. Stern, the Brompton at 205 East 85^th Street is located in the Upper East Side.

The Brompton was completed in 2009, is a Gothic-inspired and has generously sized residences and elegant details. Ranging from studios to townhouses, the 166 Brompton apartments have elegant kitchens featuring maple cabinetry and state-of-the-art appliances; master bathrooms are equipped with vanities with double sinks, six-foot soaking tubs and glass and marble shower stalls. Some apartments have fireplaces and Juliet balconies, while the duplex Townhouses have elevators. All residences have oversized windows, washers and dryers, entry foyers and walk-in closets.

The Brompton's hotel-style amenities include a personal assistant to handle everything from making restaurant reservations and spa appointments to arranging pet and child care. There is a landscaped interior courtyard for residents and ownership comes with a membership to the adjoining Equinox Fitness Club, which has a private lounge for Brompton residents and a full-service spa along with premium fitness equipment.

The residential Yorkville neighborhood is near Carl Schurz Park, the jogging path along the East River, public transportation and excellent local shops.

This plain, 25-story apartment building at 301 West 53^rd Street on the northwest corner at Eighth Avenue was assembled by Harry Horwitz and erected in 1980.

It subsequently was known as the Encore and more recently as The Metro and has been owned by Ruby Schron, Extell Development, Westbrook Capital and most recently by HFZ Capital Group, which is headed by Ziel Feldman. HFZ is converting it to 252 condominiums and has renamed it Fifty Third and Eighth.

It was designed by Liebman & Liebman and Schuman Lichtenstein & Claman.

BP Architects is designing the conversion, Terrain NYC is the landscape architect and ASH NYC is responsible for the furnishings.

This mid-block condominium apartment building is one of the most elegant post-war buildings on the Upper East Side Side.

The 7-story building at 433 East 74th Street has 12 apartments, including a duplex maisonette, and was developed by Josh Guberman of Core Development Group, the developer also of Union Square Lofts.

The building, which was completed in 2008 and is called Lux 74, was designed by Chris Caranno of ADG Architecture and Design, PC.

The building has 24-hour concierge service and a landscaped roof deck, a spa club, and an residents' lounge and dining area with fireplace and a full-time superintendent and porter.

Kitchens have custom Italian walnut cabinetry, Viking appliances, Sub Zero refrigerators, Giallo Elena limestone countertops and backsplashes, and Thermador ovens.

Bathrooms have walnut vanities, wall mounted faucets, radiant warm floor systems, Toto Ultimate toilets, Dranch Rain shower heads, and limestone walls.

The rear garden is immense with a rear wall of tall bamboo trees.

Initial pricing ranged from $1,200,000 for a 1,240-square-foot one-bedroom unit to $8,200,000 for a 5,896-square-foot, five-bedroom apartment with a 985-square-foot garden.

This very handsome tower commands a splendid site overlooking, to the east, Manhattan Square and the American Museum of Natural History in the foreground, and Central Park just beyond.

More importantly, from a civic standpoint, this building significantly reinforced the upgrading of Columbus Avenue, and gave the Upper West Side and important and attractive, new (unofficial) landmark.

The tower is in context only with the great towers of Central Park West, and its site fits gracefully into the Upper West Side skyline, as seen from the east. It is also the most prominent structure on Columbus Avenue, an avenue that greatly needed such a focus north of 68th Street.

The slender 31-story spire, which was completed in 1985, has quite a complex geometry at its top, yet it is well contained and conservative. Its architect, Frank Williams, designed a somewhat similar, but taller tower, the Belaire at 524 East 72nd Street, a few years later.

The project was one of several pioneering developments undertaken by William Zeckendorf Jr., and World-Wide Realty in the early 1980's. The building has 154 condominium apartments and handsome retail space.

Belvedere Castle, which overlooks Turtle Pond and the Shakespeare in the Park Theater in Central Park, is a short walk inside Central Park from 81st Street.

There is excellent public transportation nearby and numerous restaurants and boutiques.

1049 Fifth Avenue merges an opulent pre-war style with state-of-the art finishes and technology.

It recently underwent an interior gut renovation that included substantial soundproofing between floors and apartments. With only 54 condominium residences on 23 floors, there are no more than three units per floor, with one floor designated for smaller staff apartments.

Residences are sprawling, averaging over 2,000 square feet. There are libraries with raised panel walls, coffered ceilings, Chicago windows with hand-operated panels, solid core raised panel doors, crown moldings and hand-laid rosewood herringbone patterned floors with ebony borders. Marble bathrooms have cherry wood raised panel cabinetry, double sink vanities and deep soaking tubs. Eat-in kitchens have top-of-the-line appliances, white marble and polished gray granite floors, full-size washers and dryers and butler’s pantries with warming ovens. Many residences have multiple terraces offering some of the best views in Manhattan of Central Park and the city.

It has a full-time doorman and concierge, private storage, attended elevators, a bicycle room and refrigerator storage for deliveries.

This attractive condominium project is a residential expansion of the former Liberty Storage Warehouse that for about a century sported a 37-foot-high, copper statue closely modeled on the Statue of Liberty.

Although the warehouse was in mid-block its statue atop the center of its roofline on the sidestreet was visible from the plaza at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts across Broadway.

The warehouse, which was originally erected in 1891, was eight stories and the Athena Group has added four floors to it and reclad it in 2003 to create 32 loft-style condominium apartments ranging in size from 1,600 to 6,151 square feet and initially priced at about $1,500,000 to $10,200,000.

Loft-style residences are not common on the Upper East and Upper West Sides and the Lincoln Center area is one of the city's most popular with many restaurants and stores and plenty of culture. O'Neal's Restaurant is a retail tenant in this building.

This building is tucked away just to the east of a new apartment tower known as the Grand Tier at 1930 Broadway. Both light-colored buildings complement each other and both were designed by Costas Kondylis.

Among the initial residents of this building were Gretchen Carlson, host of the CBS Early Show on Saturday, her husband, Casey Close, head of the baseball division of the International Management Group, the daughter of Barry Schwartz, former owner of Calvin Klein and chairman of the New York Racing Association, and the daughter of Sol Kerzner, the owner of the Ocean Club in the Bahamas and the Atlantis chain of tropical resorts.

In February, 2002, the Liberty statue was removed by the building arts committee and is now in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum of Art.

In his book, "New York: A Serendipiter s Journey," (Harper & Brothers, 1961), Gay Talese wrote that the statue had been installed in 1902 by William H. Flattau, an immigrant warehouse owner, and that it had a circular interior stairway but access for the public was closed in 1912. It was cast in Akron, Ohio.

The Athena Group is headed by Louis Dubin and has also converted and expanded the building at 838 Fifth Avenue into luxury condominiums.

The 219-unit condominium at One Riverside South, completed in 2015, was designed by Goldstein, Hill & West and features interiors by designer Shamir Shah. The condo offers more than 50,000 square feet of lifestyle amenities, including a 40,000-square-foot athletic club and spa with a 75-foot swimming pool, 38-foot rock-climbing wall, basketball and squash courts, two-lane bowling alley and lounge, and a golf simulator. The building also includes an indoor playground, function room equipped with a catering kitchen, private screening room, residents lounge and landscaped garden courtyard.

Neighboring Riverside Park South, stretching along the Hudson River, offers 21 acres of open space, sports fields, playgrounds, plazas, piers and intimate gardens easily accessed by residents. 

Manhattan House is located on the Upper East Side at 200 East 66th Street.

The 19-story complex spans the entire block between Second and Third Avenues and 65th and 66th Streets. It underwent a significant overhaul in 2007, one that aimed to preserve the complex's original architectural details. Kitchens and bathrooms boast modern, premium appliances and deluxe fixtures.

Amenities include a roof deck, a lounge, a spa, a yoga studio, a library and 24-hour doorman and concierge service; it also has a children’s playroom designed by Roto Architects, many balconies and a lush garden.

It is close to many restaurants and shops along Third Avenue.
