There’s something undeniably special about owning a home on Central Park West, especially in a classic pre-war building that has witnessed nearly a century of New York life. Residence 916 at The Alden offers a rare opportunity to claim your own intimate foothold in Manhattan, high above the trees, in one of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods. Set within an elegant Emery Roth designed building, this Upper West Side studio offers a quiet retreat from the energy of the city.

The apartment is in good condition and perfectly livable as-is, with the opportunity to update and add your own personal style. The kitchen and bath are functional and well maintained, offering a solid foundation for customization while preserving the timeless charm that defines pre-war Central Park West apartments.
