The Olmsted

The Olmsted is a 19-story postwar condominium in New York City, completed in 1961 and composed primarily of one- and two-bedroom residences. Architecturally it reflects mid-20th-century modern sensibilities with practical, loft-friendly floor plans, generous windows and several units offering private terraces or balconies. Interiors commonly include features such as eat-in or galley kitchens, walk-in closets, recessed lighting, hardwood floors, and den or alcove configurations; many apartments also show modernized finishes and expanded storage. Shared facilities are substantial for an urban building: a 24-hour staffed lobby, live-in superintendent, fitness center and yoga studio, laundry facilities, bike room, private storage, and on-site parking. Outdoors, landscaped private grounds include gardens, courtyards, walkways and a children’s playground that extend the living space toward Central Park. The condominium allows pets and pied-à-terres, requires no board application process for buyers, and maintains active on-site management and maintenance staff. Located on Central Park West near Columbus Avenue and the Columbus Square retail complex, the property offers immediate park access, close subway connections and a wide range of neighborhood retail and dining amenities.
