Overview of Carnegie Mews at 211 West 56th Street

Carnegie Mews is a 36 story post-war rental tower at 211 West 56th Street, completed in 1979 with 394 apartments. It occupies the former site of the Broadway Tabernacle Congregational Church, a French Gothic building designed by Barney & Chapman in 1905. The present beige brick tower rises from a two story limestone base with a broad entrance marquee and revolving front door.

Studios and one bedroom residences make up most of the building, with spacious living rooms, large windows and fully equipped kitchens. Wood floors recur in the available layouts, and south facing apartments look across West 56th Street.

The attended lobby has a full time doorman and concierge. Additional services include a health club, laundry room, full service parking garage, valet service and dry cleaning. Heat and water are included in the rent, and pets are not permitted.

Carnegie Hall is just east of the building, while Columbus Circle and Central Park are a few blocks north. Lincoln Center, the Theater District, Rockefeller Center and the shops and dining at Columbus Circle are also close by.

Broker & Resident Comments

This "hidden gem in midtown" earns raves for its "unbeatable" Columbus Circle location, offering "spectacular views" and "spacious" apartments that are "quiet and comfortable." The "incredibly professional" staff treats residents "better than family," while the "well-maintained" building provides a welcoming atmosphere just steps from Central Park, multiple subway lines and city attractions. Though the structure may be "dated," the "efficient" amenities and "friendly community" make this a coveted address where "coming home is a very pleasant experience." The building's prime position means some typical Manhattan street noise, but residents agree it's a small trade-off for this "luxury doorman" building's numerous perks.
