Ultimate Homes: This Soaring 94th-Floor Manhattan Aerie Puts You Above the Clouds

Welcome to Ultimate Homes, a new Robb Report video series in which host Anthony Park guides you through the most striking and luxurious homes on the prime market today. Whether it’s a three-story condo in a New York high-rise or a sprawling oceanside estate on the cliffs of Malibu, we’ll show you every room—and amenity—inside the world’s most coveted addresses.

On the Swiss Riviera, a Sophisticated Villa Is Listed for $30 Million

Standing nearly 1,400 feet tall but measuring just 93.5 feet square from its base all the way to its cloud-piercing tip, New York City’s 432 Park Avenue makes an understated but powerful architectural statement in a city where there’s constant clamoring for attention. The exceptionally slender residential tower is punctuated by an even grid of ten-foot square, green-tinted glass windows that, from the outside, serve as a soothing counterpoint to the visual cacophony of the surrounding skyline, and from the inside, make for massive portals that frame jaw-dropping city and Central Park views that only get more thrilling the higher you go.

Designed by Uruguayan-born architect Rafael Viñoly and completed in 2015, the buff-colored Portland cement tower has its main entrance on East 56 ^th Street, with a luminescent satellite pavilion at the corner of Park Avenue that houses the headquarters of the Phillips International Auction House .

Occupying half of the 94 ^th floor on the north side of the building, a three-bedroom and three-and-a-half-bath aerie of just under 4,000 square feet has ceilings that soar to 12’6” high and an east-to-west orientation that allows for both sunrise and sunset views. Through the petite entrance gallery, the nearly 900-square-foot combination living and dining room has large-scale herringbone parquet underfoot and four ten-by-ten-foot windows, each with a cushioned window seat. To one side of the room, a pocket door slides open to a small library, and, to the other side, the marble-floored gourmet kitchen is arranged around a large island with a combination of natural oak and white laminate cabinetry.

Bedrooms are situated off a shared corridor. Both secondary bedrooms have private bathrooms and epic views over and beyond Central Park, while the corner primary suite stretches more than 30 feet long with two walk-in closets, plus a third smaller one for linens or shoes. In the book-matched marble primary bathroom, an egg-shaped tub sits in front of a ten-foot-square window with a sky-high view past the tippy-tops of the other supertall towers lined up along Midtown Manhattan’s Billionaires’ Row, over the Hudson River, and across a wide swathe of New Jersey.

Monthly taxes and common charges total about $23,000 and cover a wealth of services and amenities that include a private restaurant with both indoor and patio seating, as well as in-residence dining options. Beyond the motor court, where valets will whisk your car to an on-site garage, and the lobby, which is staffed 24-hours a day, are a 75-foot indoor pool, a state-of-the-art screening room, a private dining room, a double-height fitness room, a spa space with a private massage room, a wood-paneled billiards room, a children’s playroom, a communal terrace, and, for booking theater tickets and securing tough-to-get dinner rezzies, a well-connected on-site concierge.

Penthouse 94A was recently taken off the market; it was last listed by Jared Schwadron at OFFICIAL with a price tag of $33 million.
