Completed in 2006, The Kalahari is a 12-story, Gold LEED-certified condominium in Central Harlem composed primarily of studio, one- and two-bedroom homes with occasional larger duplex and penthouse layouts. The exterior reads as a modern midrise with landscaped setbacks and green roofs; multiple units include private outdoor spaces (balconies or terraces). Interiors emphasize open layouts, oversized dual-pane windows, high ceilings, bamboo hardwood floors, and contemporary kitchens with stone counters, islands or breakfast bars and stainless appliances. Bathrooms commonly feature marble or premium finishes and deep soaking tubs; many residences include walk-in closets, customized fitted storage and in-unit washer/dryers. Common areas are extensive for a midrise: a staffed 24-hour concierge and resident manager, grand lobby, library/workspace, meeting/party rooms, children's playroom and sound-proofed music practice rooms. Wellness and social amenities include a fully equipped fitness center overlooking a landscaped courtyard and herb garden, two roof decks with city views, and on-site bicycle storage. Practical services and systems reflect the building's sustainability and convenience focus: valet/attached garage parking, package/cold storage room, fiber-optic network and complimentary Wi-Fi in public areas, filtered-air system, laundry rooms on each floor and optional private storage units. The condominium allows pets and investor ownership with flexible subletting policies. Located a few blocks from Central Park, Morningside and Marcus Garvey Parks and within easy reach of multiple subway lines and neighborhood retail, the building supports an urban lifestyle that blends green building performance with full-service condominium living.
