Perched at the very top of NYC supertall 432 Park Avenue is Penthouse 88, though it feels more like a private observatory floating above Manhattan. Newly listed for an extraordinary $88.5 million, the showpiece spans 8,400 square feet across the entire 88th floor within the largest residential structure in the Western Hemisphere. The scale and drama it presents is truly astounding. With 360-degree panoramic views stretching from Central Park all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, not a single sight is missed.
The design is lavish, yet minimal and sleek. Clean architectural lines, pale oak floors, and Italian marble make the space full sultry and luxurious to touch. The true centerpiece is the great room topped with dancing, sculptural chandelier. There is enough openness to host formal dinners, private events, or simply relax with the Central Park as your backdrop. Meanwhile, the formal dining room and library add a more intimate and classic New York feel.
For those ritzy enough to set foot inside, it feels like a modern palace in the sky. Listing agent Richard Steinberg with Compass shares, “This residence is something truly special. Purchased during construction, it was completely reimagined with tens of millions invested into custom finishes and thoughtful design details throughout. Designed by Andrew Sheinman of Pembrooke & Ives, the apartment has a warmth and level of craftsmanship that’s rarely seen. It’s hard not to view it as one of Manhattan’s most remarkable homes.”
Clearly, the penthouse delivers height and luxury that few residences in the world can offer and few people can fathom living amidst. The building also offers some star power, as J. Lo and A-Rod once owned an apartment there when they were a couple.
