Central Park Place, 56-floor residential skyscraper in Manhattan, United States.
Central Park Place is a 56-story residential tower in Manhattan standing about 587 feet (179 meters) tall. The building features glass and concrete walls that catch sunlight throughout the day and houses multiple residential units for different households.
The building was designed and built by the architecture firm Davis Brody Bond and completed in 1988. It emerged during a major wave of residential tower construction near Central Park in the 1980s.
The building shows how Manhattan's wealthy residents moved closer to Central Park during the 1980s boom in luxury housing. Its glass and concrete design reflects the architectural tastes of that era.
The building sits right next to Columbus Circle, a major transportation hub where several subway lines meet. This location makes it easy for residents and visitors to reach other parts of the city.
Many people don't realize that upper floors offer sweeping views across all of Central Park and over toward the Hudson River. These sightlines make the location highly desirable for residents looking for natural vistas alongside city living.
