The Palm Tree Condominiums is a six-story, turn-of-the-century condominium conversion located in Harlem’s Mount Morris Park Historic District. Completed around 1900, the limestone elevator building preserves prewar character across approximately two-dozen units, many arranged as two-bedroom layouts. Architectural features visible in individual residences include high ceilings, original casement windows, crown and picture moldings, transom doors, exposed brick and original hardwood floors; some apartments retain period details while others have been comprehensively renovated with modern kitchens and windowed baths. Building-level services are modest: a part-time superintendent, an elevator, and on-site storage lockers and bike storage available on a first-come basis. Mechanical updates cited in listings include a new roof, rewired electrical systems, upgraded boilers and 230V service to apartments. Laundry is typically in-unit (stacked or combo washer/dryers) rather than a communal room. Exterior context emphasizes a park-front townhouse block setting directly adjacent to Mount Morris Park and Marcus Garvey Park, with easy access to multiple subway lines and Metro-North. The condominium’s policies vary by unit but commonly restrict dogs (exceptions for service/ESA animals), permit subletting in many cases, and allow pied-a-terres; financing has been available through local banks. Overall the building blends preserved prewar detailing with incremental modern upgrades and basic resident amenities, anchored by a highly walkable, park-centric Harlem location.
