The Park Central at 220 West 111st St. #6A

Rent this recently renovated prewar 2 bed/2 bath apartment. The Park Central is conveniently located just one block from Central Park and two subway stations (2/3 express and B/C at 110th Street), as well as the crosstown bus. Yellow taxis are easily found half a block away at the corner of 111th Street and Frederick Douglass Blvd.

The apartment is on the top floor (6th) of this elevator building, is quiet and enjoys good light. There is light-colored maple hardwood strip flooring throughout and crown moldings in all rooms. The windowed open kitchen faces south with black granite counters, tiled backsplash and stainless steel appliances including dishwasher and overhead microwave. The two full period bathrooms have floor to ceiling subway tiling. One has a tub, the other a shower stall.

The building itself features a restored prewar facade, turn of the century lobby with marble mosaic flooring, wainscoting and a tin ceiling. There is a laundry room, bike room and virtual doorman. The lovely roof terrace is just a short flight upstairs from the apartment with open views across the rooftops.

There is a great supermarket just over a block away on West 110th Street past Central Park West. A stroll uptown along Frederick Douglass Blvd brings you to Best Yet gourmet supermarket and a wonderful selection of new and older restaurants, cafes, bakeries, bars and lounges. These include Melba’s, Lee Lee’s Baked Goods, Levain Bakery, Zoma, Bier International, Moca, 67 Orange Street and Nectar.
