This beautiful French Second Empire style architecture is a 13 floor, 42 apartment co-ops building completed in1908 and converted in 1957 overlooking Central Park West. The style and design of this brick and limestone building located at the corner of 74th Street and 151 Central Park West took my breath away. I can imagine the views from the upper floors must be breathtaking!
After doing some research I found out that the site of the Central Park West - West 73rd-74th Street Historic District originally formed part of the farm of Richard Somerlndyck, whose family owned much of the land along the Upper West Side in the late 18th century. Although the farmland had been subdivided into lots by 1835, construction did not begin on this block until the l880s. This Kenilworth Co-op” was designed by Townsend, Steinle and Haskell in 1907. The Kenilworth building has 39 grand apartments consisting of classic Seven, Eight and Nine room homes. There are only 3 apartments per floor offering its residents elegance, privacy and quiet.
