Building of The Month-The San Remo at 145 Central Park West

The San Remo: Twin-Towered Building

Built in 1930 and designed by preeminent New York architect Emery Roth, the San Remo is located at 145 Central Park West, between 74th and 75th Streets.

The layouts of most of the San Remo’s 136 apartments are unusually spacious – even by the generous standards of the neighborhood – with many units more than 2,500 square feet and living rooms as big as 620 square feet. Ceilings range from 10 to 11 feet and lavish finishes are the norm. Since becoming a co-op in the 1970s, the apartments have all been outfitted with modern appliances and fixtures as well as thermal window glass.

San Remo amenities include a state-of-the-art health club, a bike room, a multi-purpose community room and private storage lockers. It is located close to Central Park, the shops and restaurants of the Upper West Side and such cultural attractions as the Museum of Natural History.
