This Midtown East Penthouse follows up 432 Park Avenue for a more accessible price of $16.35 Million. Penthouse 33 sits atop 200 East 59th Street, a building developed by Harry Macklowe and finished by Centurion Real Estate Partners. The penthouse residence shines for its soaring 14-foot ceilings and incredible floor-to-ceiling windows that place residents right in the heart of the vibrant Midtown East neighborhood, just steps away from high-end shopping including Bloomingdales’ bustling flagship store. A dramatic spiral staircase, a birds-eye view of Central Park and a seamless indoor-outdoor experience is the formula Macklowe concocted for this penthouse in his sister building 432 Park Avenue, one of the tallest and successful residential towers in the Western Hemisphere.
The grand spaces of 200 East 59th Street are unique by its column-free interiors, an engineering feat accomplished by architecture firm CetraRuddy, by pushing the interior support structures out to the exterior. The columns now proudly epitomize the building’s architecture and give it its iconic Manhattan-meets-Miami look.
Inside the three-bedroom apartment is a corner great room that anchors the home. It leads to two floors of outdoor space spanning 1,186 square feet, accessible by a show-stopping spiral staircase, as well as an open concept kitchen. The kitchen is outfitted with Italian white glass and aluminum cabinetry by Aran Cuchine, book-matched Calacatta marble slab countertops, a full height backsplash and white glass appliances from Miele. The luxurious master suite encased in glass faces north and features a sophisticated modern design. Building amenities include a marble entertaining level with a landscaped terrace lounge, catering kitchen, dining room and fireplace, as well as a fitness center overlooking the cityscape.
