About The Astor
Everything about The Astor’s architecture, from its stately limestone base to its hand-carved Juliet balconies and its intricate copper cornice, speaks to an era of bygone grandeur. As it should: the building, or rather trio of buildings spanning an entire city block, was originally commissioned in 1901 by Gilded Age tycoon William Waldorf Astor. Part of the real estate rush on the Upper West Side, it was originally conceived as two towers, designed by architectural firm Clinton and Russell; Peabody, Wilson & Brown added the third, taller tower in 1914 to accommodate penthouses. Today, it has been scrupulously restored to its prewar splendor.
Designed by Pembrooke & Ives, The Astor residences, which range from expansive one-bedrooms to palatial five-bedrooms, combine all the glamour of turn-of-the-century New York with all the conveniences of modern living. Nearly every home has a unique layout, but all possess that mix of prewar grandeur—think generous proportions and elaborate detailing—and thoughtful updates, like open kitchens with top-of-the-line appliances and marble-clad bathrooms with freestanding tubs. Select residences also feature restored wood-burning fireplaces, bay windows, and outdoor spaces.
Pair the grand lobbies, with their mosaic detailing, crown moldings, and marble wainscotting, with a state-of-the-art fitness center, children’s play area, and other modern amenities, and you have the best of old and new. This is old-school grandeur meets new-school conveniences. And the icing on the cake is the location, with Central Park, Riverside Park, Lincoln Center, and the American Museum of Natural History all a stone’s throw away.
