The Osborne, like the Dakota, is one of the finest examples of turn of the century architecture in Manhattan. With an unparalleled location across from Carnegie Hall, around the corner from Central Park at the crossroads of everything happening in town, the Osborne is a rare-surviving example of the 1880s gilded-age with an elaborate entrance and richly appointed lobby. Built for the prominent citizens of the day, the Osborne retains its elegant and important history. Pet friendly. Flip tax 3%.
