More than 100 years have passed since The Prasada, built by Franklin and Samuel Haines and designed by Charles W. Romeyn and Henry R. Wynne, rose across from Central Park, and the French Second Empire-style has undergone some changes in that time. However, according to architecture critic Carter Horsley, it still “has one of the grandest residential entrances in the city.” Outside the grand doors, it is a short walk from Central Park mainstays like Sheep Meadow, Tavern on the Green, and Central Park Carousel. It is also near Upper West Side attractions like Lincoln Center, Columbus Circle, and popular restaurants.
Apartments in such a spectacular building are few and far between. Indeed, when #7B came on the market, it appeared for the first time in more than 60 years. The corner four-bedroom, three-bath co-op has listed for $8.9 million. CityRealty listings show that this price is well above the Central Park West median of $6.25 million for similarly sized apartments, but this home's incredible light, prewar grandeur, and prime Upper West Side location make it well worth it.
