145-146 Central Park W

The San Remo is a landmark prewar cooperative built in 1930 and rising 28 stories with 27 large units configured primarily as two- and three-bedroom residences. Designed by Emery Roth, the twin-towered structure presents classic 1930s architecture and a formal, historically detailed lobby. Typical homes within the building retain prewar elements—high ceilings, plaster crown moldings, herringbone and straight-plank hardwood floors, ornate fireplaces and generous entrance galleries—while many have been fully renovated to include modern kitchens, marble or radiant-heated baths, in-unit washers/dryers and upgraded mechanicals. Public spaces emphasize resident comfort: a staffed 24-hour doorman and concierge, live-in superintendent, central laundry, bike room, private storage and a landscaped courtyard/garden provide both services and outdoor respite. The building also maintains a state-of-the-art fitness center and a recreation/party room. Policies are cooperative-friendly: pets and pied-à-terre ownership are permitted, 50% financing is typically allowed, and a purchaser-paid flip tax applies. Located on Central Park West between 74th and 75th Streets, the San Remo offers immediate access to Central Park and the cultural amenities of the Upper West Side, delivering a blend of formal prewar scale and contemporary livability.
