Building of The Month-The Hampshire House at 150 Central Park South

The Hampshire House: Historic and Iconic

The Hampshire House opened on October 16, 1937. The New York Times ad campaign noted: “New York’s newest exclusive apartment hotel - has the entire length of Central Park as its footstool - suggests a London town house in a Hyde Park setting.  One of the city’s great skyline buildings, the Hampshire House is noted for its spectacular, steeply pitched copper roof with two tall chimneys and apartments serving as primary residences and pied a terres, with recent sales ranging in price from $550,000 to $35,000,000.
