The Level Club is a landmark 19-story prewar condominium on the Upper West Side, originally completed in 1925–1926 as an exclusive private club. Its 43 residences range from studios to two- and three-bedroom layouts, including several duplex and loft-like combinations created through sensitive conversions. Architecturally the façade mixes Neo-Gothic and Art Deco motifs with carved stone details and arched windows; the restored three-story lobby features Italian marble stairs, carved balustrades, paneled walls, and period bronze lighting that recall the building’s ceremonial origins. Apartments retain many classic prewar elements—high ceilings, oversized windows, hardwood floors, exposed brick, crown moldings, and generous closet space—while many units have been modernized with renovated kitchens and baths, high-end appliances, washer/dryer hookups, and central heating and air conditioning. A selection of residences offers private outdoor space (balconies, Juliet balconies, and terraces) and dramatic double-height rooms in duplex homes. Common amenities include a 24-hour doorman, concierge, resident superintendent, children’s playroom, central laundry, bike room, package and storage options; building policies are condo-flexible, permitting financing, pied-à-terre ownership, and investor-friendly subletting under board rules. Pets are welcome. Situated between Broadway and West End Avenue near West 73rd Street, the building sits a block from the 1/2/3 subway and within easy walking distance of Riverside and Central Parks, Lincoln Center, the Beacon Theatre, grocery options such as Fairway and Citarella, and an array of restaurants and neighborhood services that define Upper West Side living.
