Description

A House in the Sky, An Extraordinary Water-Tower PenthousePerched high above the Grand Concourse, this extraordinary duplex penthouse is a rare New York City treasure, a private house in the sky with soaring interiors, a spectacular architect designed renovation, and breathtaking panoramic views stretching from the Manhattan skyline to Long Island, Westchester, and New Jersey, with glimpses of the iconic George Washington Bridge. Situated beneath one of the water towers atop Executive Towers, this remarkable residence offers something almost impossible to find in New York City: the privacy and individuality of a freestanding home, surrounded by open sky, sweeping views, and extraordinary outdoor space.A Dramatic Interior with PersonalityAt the heart of the home is a magnificent double height great room, where a soaring wall of 14' windows frames sweeping skyline views, including a spectacular bird's-eye perspective of iconic Yankee Stadium. Natural light floods the space, while a Netherlands made Wanders gas fireplace provides a striking focal point and a sculptural staircase with wood treads and glass railings connects the two levels. An extensive, architect-led renovation has transformed the penthouse into a sophisticated yet wonderfully individual home. The great room flows effortlessly into the dining area and beautifully designed Space Theory kitchen by Henrybuilt, creating an open, inviting space equally suited to intimate evenings and entertaining.Throughout, clean architectural lines are enlivened by unexpected touches of color, texture, and personality. Imported Italian tile, custom detailing, and a playful powder room with a blush Concretti basin and terrazzo finishes create a home that feels both refined and refreshingly unconventional. Upstairs, the generous bedroom suite overlooks the great room, sharing its dramatic windows and distant skyline views. The beautifully appointed bathroom features a double vanity, spacious glass-enclosed shower, separate water closet, and heated floors.Outdoor Living Above the CityPerhaps the most magical feature of this home is its extraordinary private rooftop deck, which wraps around the penthouse and offers breathtaking views in every direction. Morning coffee overlooking the city. Afternoon sunshine and endless sky. Dinner outdoors as the sun sets. And, after dark, the unforgettable spectacle of Manhattan's skyline sparkling in the distance. With no neighboring towers interrupting the horizon, the sense of openness and privacy is remarkable. This is outdoor living on a scale and in a setting rarely encountered in New York City.A recently completed rooftop reconstruction has further enhanced the experience, introducing new decking, walkways, and an expansive planted green roof. The lush greenery creates a beautiful visual extension of the private terrace, with the city skyline beyond. Access to the apartment via the landscaped rooftop is reserved for penthouse residents and their guests.A Piece of New York Architectural HistoryThe penthouse is part of a fascinating New York architectural tradition: intimate residences tucked beneath the water towers of grand apartment buildings, a concept dating back to the early twentieth century. Designed by noted architect Philip Birnbaum and completed in 1963, Executive Towers is a striking example of mid century modern architecture. Originally promoted as the Bronx's first luxury skyscraper, the building remains a defining landmark of the Grand Concourse Historic District. Its monumental entrance, elegant lobby, expansive windows, and distinctive modernist design reflect an era when the Grand Concourse was celebrated as one of New York City's great residential boulevards. The penthouse is reached by elevator to the 24th floor, followed by one flight of stairs and a short walk across the rooftop-a wonderfully u
