The Brentmore, Apartment building on Central Park West, Manhattan, United States.

The Brentmore features a U-shaped design with two wings connected by a narrow courtyard, presenting a classical tripartite structure of base, shaft, and capital.

Constructed in 1909, this French Beaux Arts building was designed by Schwartz and Gross, with architect Emery Roth adding a penthouse pavilion in 1927.

The building transformed from 37 rental units into a cooperative in 1959, attracting residents like Robert De Niro, Paul Simon, Billy Joel, and Sting.

The residential units range from 1,900 to 6,600 square feet with 11-foot ceilings, and the building contains a total of 28 apartments.

In 1915, a three-bedroom simplex unit rented for $3,750 annually, while a three-bedroom duplex commanded $4,000 per year.
