For all the many good things about living on the Upper West Side -- from the wide array of culinary and cultural mainstays that call the Upper West Side home to the proximity to Central Park and Riverside Park to a wealth of elegant condominiums for sale -- perhaps the most notable is this: no Manhattan neighborhood feels more Manhattan-y than the Upper West Side. The setting of Woody Allen’s “Manhattan” -- among numerous other films -- simply is Manhattan, for many New Yorkers. It’s a good thing, and it’s a large part of what makes Upper West Side condos some of the most sought-after apartment listings in Manhattan.
Owning an apartment on the Upper West Side means access to some of the city's elite restaurants, from iconic fine-dining establishments to famed bagelries, diners and informal ethnic food joints; it also means that vaunted foodie destinations as Zabar's, Citarella and Fairway are jut a short walk away. The only-in-New-York cultural attractions for which the Upper West Side is justly famous are everywhere -- at Lincoln Center and the American Museum of Natural History and at Symphony Space and the Beacon Theater, but also in the small shops, bookstores, galleries, bars and coffeshops that dot the tree-lined streets. Apartments close to Central Park and Riverside Park abound. Lincoln Square, a sub-neighborhood in the Upper West Side, also features a great farmers market that draws a nice crowd. Superb mass transit options ensure that most Upper West Side condominiums are just a short walk from the subway, which in turn puts the rest of Manhattan within easy reach. But when you’re at the epicenter of Manhattan-ness, why leave?
The Upper West Side is also home to some of the most striking and desirable apartments for sale in Manhattan. From pre-war condo conversions like The Apthorp and The Intercontinental to new construction blockbusters such as The Laureate, and The Linden 78, Upper West Side condo listings offer a wide range of living options and a high standard of quality. Ultra-luxury condominium listings such as The Residences at the Mandarin Oriental and the Time Warner Center Condominium give the Upper West Side a high end that few Manhattan neighborhoods can match. Thanks to some of the most notable new construction condo listings in Manhattan and the best of what makes Manhattan Manhattan -- from Central Park views to H&H Bagels -- the Upper West Side is a neighborhood like no other.
