Astor Court is a distinguished prewar cooperative on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, completed in 1916 and rising 12–13 stories around a central landscaped courtyard. Designed in an Italian palazzo idiom by Charles A. Platt for Vincent Astor, the masonry building preserves classic proportions—high ceilings, original moldings, large multi-pane windows and wood-burning fireplaces—while offering a mix of one-, three- and four-bedroom residences with flexible, grand-scaled layouts. Interiors commonly feature formal entry foyers, separate dining rooms, eat-in kitchens, pantries, dens or bonus rooms, generous walk-in closets and in-unit washer/dryer hookups where allowed by the board. Shared amenities emphasize resident-focused conveniences: a one-acre private English garden at the building’s heart, a planted roof terrace, children’s playroom, bike room, laundry facilities, storage and on-site garage parking arrangements. Full-time staff includes 24-hour doormen at two entrances, a live-in resident manager and building maintenance. The co-op permits pets and pieds-à-terre with board approval and typically allows up to 70% financing, subject to liquidity requirements and standard co-op review. Located between Broadway and Amsterdam from West 89th to West 90th Streets, Astor Court is a short walk to Central and Riverside Parks, cultural institutions and multiple subway lines, anchoring a tranquil, amenity-rich Upper West Side lifestyle.
