The Adlon at 200 West 54th St. #10C

Elegant Architectural Details
Welcome to a uniquely stylish home for those seeking Prewar detail and craftsmanship steps from Carnegie Hall, Central Park South, Columbus Circle, MoMA, and Fifth Avenue’s shops.

Built in 1912 by architects George and Edward Blum, this fully-renovated apartment features a graceful foyer gallery and pillared parlor entry. The spacious living room has a coved, intricately laced plaster ceiling, custom wall sconces, a brass-front decorative fireplace with Grueby-style tiles, wainscoting, and a dramatic, floor-to-ceiling Art Nouveau stained glass casement window. The ceilings are 9’4" high throughout.

The renovated, windowed kitchen has marble counter tops, full ceiling-height cabinets, and all-stainless appliances, including a new Miele dishwasher, DeLonghi gas range, LG microwave, and Northland refrigerator. There is also a front-loading, vented Meridian washer/dryer.

The windowed bathroom features lacquered walls, coved ceilings, inlaid marble floors, all-glass shower, marble counter, custom cabinets, a new Toto toilet, and Restoration Hardware fixtures.

The east-facing bedroom has new custom City Quiet double-glazed windows, custom curtains and Roman blinds, original transom, coved ceilings, brass wall sconces, and Cole & Son Fornasetti Nuvole wallpaper mounted on the ceiling.

The apartment features three unusually deep and tall closets plus a large walk-in coat closet with shelves. Other details include quarter-sawn inlaid parquet hardwood floors, and original solid core wood doors with period knobs and hardware. The entire apartment was re-wired and outfitted with grounded outlets and dimmer-controlled lighting. The plumbing has been fully updated. Elegant ceiling lamps are included, as well as a 15,000 BTU, in-window Friedrich Kuhl air conditioner and a new, 6,000 BTU, in-window, low-profile Frigidaire air conditioner. The apartment was featured in the November 2016 issue of Luxe magazine.

The Adlon is a 12-story, 129-unit, non-smoking, full-service, 24-hour doorman building with a live-in super. The building features an intricate terra cotta facade, a fully-restored, period-correct lobby, elegant, hammered copper elevator cabs, a new laundry room, and bicycle storage. The Adlon’s residents have included Mickey Mantle, Carol Burnett, and many Broadway actors.

The coop permits 80% financing, pied-a-terres, subletting, and pets.
