Overview of 306 West 78th Street

306 West 78th Street is a five story, nine unit pre war townhouse on the Upper West Side, with a walk up configuration and a live in superintendent. Attributed to architect J.W. Davison, it is the third in a series of four townhouses designed in the Renaissance Revival style, on West 78th Street between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive.

The apartment mix ranges from compact studios and one bedroom layouts to larger multi level homes, with private entrances and outdoor space represented among the residences. The most distinctive layout is an owner's triplex that connects multiple levels to a south facing garden and deck, giving the townhouse a residential configuration more commonly associated with a single family home.

The building has undergone substantial infrastructure work, including replacement or upgrades to the plumbing, electrical service, windows, gas line, gas meter, and sprinkler line. It also has a gas boiler with a full hot water backup system, and the garden has been waterproofed; interior apartments have received modern cosmetic renovations as well.

306 West 78th Street is in the West End Collegiate historic district, with Riverside Park directly across the street or just steps away. The 1 train stops at 79th Street and Broadway, one block from the building, while Lincoln Center, the Museum of Natural History, neighborhood shopping, and restaurants are all in the surrounding Upper West Side.
