What It’s Like To Live In A $95-Million Penthouse 1,396 Feet Above New York City

432 Park Avenue – this is the address of the New York skyline’s newest ornament and the tallest residential tower in the Western Hemisphere. Towering up to 1,396 ft, the skyscraper offers 104 apartments at 30,000 sq ft each with 12.5 ft ceilings, 10 x 10 ft windows, and prices ranging from $16,95 million to $82,5 million.

The breathtaking condo tower was designed by Rafael Viñoly and took three years to construct. It is situated in the center of Manhattan, and the upper penthouses offer a view of all of New York City: from the Hudson to the East River, from the Bronx to Brooklyn, and from Central Park to the Atlantic Ocean. The building also features a private restaurant with an outdoor terrace, a 75ft swimming pool/spa, a screening room/ performance venue, climate-controlled wine cellars, a children’s playroom, and a board room.

The skyscraper will welcome its first residents next year, so if you’re looking for a nice little place in NY and have a solid bank account, you’d better hurry, as the penthouses are going like hot cakes.

To the south are views of New York City’s iconic skyscrapers, including the Chrysler, MetLife, and Empire State Building. One World Trade is off in the distance.

432 Park has already altered the New York City skyline. It towers above the other new construction on 57th Street, nicknamed “Billionaires’ Row” for the abundance of luxury condos cropping up there.

For those prices, we have high expectations for the interiors. And they don’t disappoint.

And to the south, views of the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, and One World Trade can all be enjoyed from this free-standing tub.

Designer Deborah Berke took a geometric approach. The huge windows are straight from the front door, making the most of the apartment’s perch above the city.

The primary suite separates his and her bathrooms. Central Park and the Upper East Side look north from the marble-covered shower.

The kitchens will be outfitted with sleek marble countertops and stainless-steel appliances.

But the kitchen’s best feature has to be this 10-foot-long marble breakfast bar framed against the window. Imagine enjoying your morning coffee here, with all of Manhattan below you.

The primary suite’s floor plan was designed so that the bed would be perfectly aligned with the window, offering the best views possible first thing in the morning.
