409 EDGECOMBE Avenue #4I

Built in 1917, this Schwartz & Gross-designed building sits high above Jackie Robinson Park and was designated a New York City landmark in 1993. As one of the most sought-after and prestigious apartment houses in Harlem, it was home to luminaries such as W.E.B. DuBois, Thurgood Marshall, Walter Francis White, and Julius Bledsoe. Converted to co-operative ownership in the 1990s, 409 Edgecombe offers luxurious apartments and the unique opportunity to live in a 106-year-old building that features a part-time doorman, elevators, and the aura of gilded age living.

Completely renovated by an award-winning architect, you will notice such details as ebonized floors, high-end appliances, granite counters, and that ineffable prewar charm.Bertazzoni, Bosch, Franke: these names you know and trust are all featured in the beautiful windowed kitchen.
