Description
The Osborne, built in 1885 and expanded in 1906, was the brainchild of the stone contractor Thomas Osborne and is a New York City landmark and has housed greats like Leonard Bernstein and Bobby Short. It was designed by James Ware with wealthy New Yorkers in mind and serves as a kind of Dakota across the street from Carnegie Hall.
The lobby serves as a testament to late-19th-century extravagance. The floors are a mix of small mosaic tiles and slabs of varicolored Italian marble. Complementary marble was used for the wainscoting and carved marble recesses with benches. Dancing nudes and intricately decorated archways take the eye to a ceiling done in rich hues of red, blue and gold leaf. Stepping inside one is instantly thrust back a hundred years in time the convenience of a full-time doorman, elevator, laundry facilities, gym, bike room and a common roof deck with Central Park views.
Up to 50% financing allowed, 3% flip tax paid by the buyer, $185/month for electricity billed with the maintenance, pets are welcome with board approval.
