Description

5 Tudor City Place Penthouses 1 & 2

High above the East River, this rare residence at 5 Tudor City Place combines two original penthouses into one expansive home with remarkable light, scale, and architectural character.

Now under complete construction, the property offers approximately 3,413 square feet of interior space and 1,500 square feet of private terraces. The final layout is being reimagined to accommodate three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one powder room, allowing the future owner to define the flow and finish of this extraordinary home.

On the entry level, an elegant entry gallery opens into a welcoming foyer that leads to a spacious living room with an adjacent powder room. Beyond lies a dramatic salon of nearly thirty feet, anchored by a fireside sitting area with large steel framed windows that fill the home with light. The layout continues into a dining room connected to a chef's kitchen, both offering direct access to a wraparound terrace that spans the perimeter of the residence.

The upper-level centers around a library leading to two guest bedrooms, one with an en suite bath and the other with a dedicated hall bath, along with a laundry area and generous closet space. At the rear, the primary suite offers exceptional privacy with a large walk-in closet and en suite bathroom.

Just beyond, a spectacular private rooftop terrace unfolds as an architectural showpiece in its own right. Measuring approximately 1,802 square feet, (measuring all outdoor space) this sprawling oasis is framed by griffins, gargoyles, and terra cotta pillars that have graced New York's skyline for nearly a century. A convenient kitchenette area serves the terrace level, creating the perfect setting for effortless entertaining. Multiple seating and garden areas capture panoramic views that stretch from the Chrysler Building to the Empire State and the East River beyond. Featured in Bullets Over Broadway and The Godfather Part III, this storied terrace offers a cinematic backdrop unlike anything else in the city.

Soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and original steel casement windows recall the building's 1920s Gothic Revival origins, blending historic craftsmanship with the opportunity for modern reinvention.

Set within the historic Tudor City enclave, a tranquil oasis just steps from Grand Central Terminal, this penthouse offers privacy, presence, and the chance to craft one of Manhattan's most distinctive skyline residences. Approved Building and DOB plans.
