Property Description

Museum Tower stands as one of Manhattan's most distinguished luxury condominium residences, rising above the Museum of Modern Art. Apartment 30BC is a rare collector's residence defined by cultural provenance, dramatic light and iconic views. Gallery-caliber interiors, gracious entertaining spaces, and unparalleled hotel-level services and amenities complete this extraordinary Manhattan offering. A rare opportunity to enjoy primary or pied-a-terre residence atop one of the world's foremost art institutions.

The formal entry hall is wrapped in exquisite neoclassical murals by Italian craftsmen and geometric patterned hardwood floors; a powder room, coat closet, and mirrored bar are conveniently concealed within the walls.

An expansive corner living room features luminous exposures where sleek urban architecture meets the drama of open skies. In the southeast corner, floor-to-ceiling windows create a true “wow” moment, framing the architectural corridor of 53rd Street and the MoMA sculpture garden below. Custom art gallery-style fiber optic lighting installed by the renowned firm Sandra Liotus Lighting Design of Newport, RI will perfectly highlight and protect any art collection.

Mirrored French doors lead to the “Gustavian” room, a library and office distinguished by arched doors, southern light, and a tranquil palette of soft blues. Outfitted with discreet storage closets and an ensuite bath, it offers a rare view of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in winter.

Candlelit dinners, lively gatherings, and celebrations all find a natural stage in the warmth of the graciously appointed dining room. Custom overhead lighting allows the mood to be tailored to the moment. The windowed eat-in kitchen pairs chic black lacquered cabinetry with ample storage and space for morning coffee overlooking the Philip Johnson Terrace and Sculpture Gardens of MoMA.

The home's private bedroom wing holds both the primary and secondary suites which are connected through a soundproofed and handsomely outfitted back hallway with a hidden door. Each is bathed in warm southern light and features its own dressing area, generous walk-in closet, and ensuite bathroom.

Museum Tower is a white-glove condominium; premium hotel-level services include a 24-hour doorman, elevator attendant, resident manager, concierge. Amenities span a state-of-the-art fitness center with pilates, sauna, steam, and meditation rooms, as well as a media, conference, and tech room. Valet and housekeeping services are available, along with private storage, temperature-controlled wine storage, and bicycle storage.

Museum Tower remains a glorious reminder of the unique partnership that not only gave shape to Cesar Pelli's modernist architectural vision but simultaneously modernized and ensured MoMA's long-term institutional stability.

A capital contribution equal to 2% of the purchase price is payable by the buyer.
