212 West 72nd Street, ideally located at the iconic corner of 72nd Street and Broadway with its signature curved glass façade, is the prime destination for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining on the Upper West Side. Nestled between Central and Riverside Parks, 212 West 72nd Street offers unparalleled access to the city’s most famous green spaces, and presents light-filled residences that have been newly reimagined by award-winning architecture firm CetraRuddy.

Newly offered as condominium residences, 212 West 72nd Street has been completely redesigned to maximize views, capture an abundance of natural light, and seamlessly connect residents to nature year-round. CetraRuddy created bright, expansive residences that celebrate the building’s iconic curved floor-to-ceiling glass windows and refurnished the interiors with top-of-the-line finishes in a striking, refined material palette. A new suite of indoor-outdoor amenities provides the perfect setting for summertime in the city.

The all-new amenity spaces at 212 West 72nd Street have been optimized for the season’s most popular activities, including grilling and outdoor yoga. The third floor features a luxurious residents’ lounge designed to function as the building’s “great room” for city living, which opens onto a landscaped outdoor terrace with seating areas.

Adjacent to the lounge is a children’s playroom, a light-filled space with reading nooks and colorful banquettes to be used for play, arts and crafts, reading or homework.

The third floor’s windowed fitness center, designed by The Wright Fit, is a state-of-the-art offering outfitted with stationary bikes, treadmills and strength-training equipment. The fitness center features stunning wood paneling and oversized windows, and continues onto a landscaped outdoor fitness space, which can be used for private training sessions or any fitness or wellness routine a resident may desire, such as rowing, boxing or meditation.

Crowning the 20-story building is an impressive landscaped roof terrace offering panoramic views of the city skyline and the treetops of Central Park, where residents can go to sunbathe, lounge, barbecue or entertain private parties all summer long. The space is the ideal location for hosting events or planning al fresco dinners, and is complete with lounges and grills. During the colder months, residents can also cozy up to the oversized gas fireplace for a unique outdoor winter experience.

In addition to the beautifully designed amenity terraces, 212 West 72nd Street also offers a collection of residences with private outdoor spaces, perfect for summertime entertaining in the comfort of one’s own home. Currently on the market are Residences 16B and 16E, two stunning homes featuring private terraces and spacious open floor plans.

Residence 16B, a gracious, 2,536-square-foot home featuring four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, offers an eat-in kitchen, separate dining area and a private terrace with open views of the Upper West Side. The entire residence is bathed in natural light from oversized windows that face south, north and east. The living room provides an abundance of entertaining space, and there is a separate formal dining area conveniently located next to the kitchen. The custom CetraRuddy-designed eat-in kitchen features bespoke Italian white matte lacquer cabinetry, honed quartzite slab countertops and backsplash, and a full suite of integrated Miele appliances, including a wine refrigerator. Residence 16B is offered at $6.85 million.

Located on the curve of the modern, glass façade is Residence 16E, priced at $8.3 million. The 2,534-square-foot home includes four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, a private terrace adjacent to the primary bedroom suite and sweeping open views over the romantic prewar buildings of the Upper West Side, all the way down to the treetops of Central Park. The design also features a CetraRuddy-designed kitchen, complete with waterfall-edge detailing and a kitchen island with countertop seating, as well as oversized floor-to-ceiling windows.

The primary bathrooms at both listings feature luxurious materials and thoughtful details that create a private sanctuary. Custom-designed vanities by CetraRuddy feature polished nickel accents and large, deep drawers clad in a leathered textile.

Medicine cabinets, offering abundant storage are framed by a lighted shadow box, and sconces accented by handmade crystal shades cast a romantic light. Showers are crafted with fluted glass panels set in a polished nickel frame, and soaking tubs feature seamless marble slabs. Floor-to-ceiling marble walls and honed marble floors complete the sophisticated, spa-like environment.

The residents at 212 West 72nd Street not only experience a new standard for modern, luxury living, but they also enjoy the convenient 72nd Street and Broadway location in the heart of the Upper West Side. Beloved for its parks, fine dining, luxury shopping, gourmet local grocers, venerated museums and world-renowned performing arts, the Upper West Side neighborhood is an international destination heralded as the home to some of New York’s most iconic institutions.

Residents are merely minutes away from the Metropolitan Opera, Lincoln Center, Beacon Theatre and the American Museum of Natural History. The building itself is home to Trader Joe’s as well as Duane Reade, providing the ultimate retail convenience, and is just steps from the 72nd Street subway station for easy access to every neighborhood in the City.
