Description

Unrivaled architectural splendor waits for you to create the most impressive home anywhere on Riverside Drive by owning a full floor at the iconic Strathmore. Originally two magnificent 10-room apartments per floor - each alone among the largest original apartments anywhere on RSD - this full floor can now be combined to create a true masterpiece of 20 rooms with about 100 feet of frontage directly on the river at a truly ideal elevation. These direct park and river views - sweeping north up to the George Washington Bridge and beyond - and multiple oversized windows on all four exposures provide excellent light throughout the day. This opportunity has never been offered before in the building's more than 100-year glorious history.

One of the most coveted building anywhere on RSD, the Strathmore retains only a handful of its magnificent original 10-room apartments including the 7th floor's S line. The 7th floor's N line was long ago divided into two excellent apartments, and now these two are being offered together with 7S to create this once-in-a-lifetime home. The pre-war details are fabulous, with near 11ft ceilings, complex plasterwork moldings, a quarter oak-paneled formal dining room with honey-combed ceiling, elaborately bordered parquet floors, leaded decorative-glass transoms, mahogany doors, and a rare original circular stall shower. Central air conditioning is permitted, as is a washer/dryer.

The Strathmore is honored with a full chapter in Andrew Alpern's iconic Luxury Apartment Houses of Manhattan. Entry into the building immediately evokes a by-gone era and a fabled living style; you will enjoy unmatched elegance and ambiance in this most sought after address. It is a full service building located in the heart of the flourishing Columbia University neighborhood which offers a multitude of superb living experiences: unrivalled cultural and intellectual energy, numerous dining, shopping and entertainment venues, exciting new con
