This Triplex Penthouse Condominium was built by one of the Upper West Side's leading developers as his family home in 2001. Perched at the top of a seven story, historically contextual structure, it was designed to combine the relaxed openness of a loft and lots of outdoor space, yet still retain the privacy and convenience of a traditional West Side family apartment a three-minute proximity to Central Park. Moreover, the huge roof terrace, a rarity on the UWS, created a unique life-style opportunity for al fresco dining, sunning, and partying under the stars — for up to 60 guests.
During the ensuing 8 years since they moved in, the neighborhood has gone from fringe to highly desirable. Now, numerous excellent restaurants, upscale supermarkets, and service enterprises are located within a few blocks. Public transportation is both close and varied and cabs always available. As for schools, the renowned Cathedral (Pre-K through 6th) is within walking distance and most of the top private schools provide locally accessible bus transport.

Note: The number of housing units in Harlem increased 14% between 1990 and 2000.[38] The rate of increase has been much more rapid in recent years. Property values in Central Harlem increased nearly 300% during the 1990s, while the rest of the City saw only a 12% increase.[38] Even empty shells of buildings in the neighborhood were, as of 2007, routinely selling for nearly $1,000,000 each.

In January 2010, The New York Times reported that in "Greater Harlem," which they defined as running from the East River to the Hudson River, from 96th Street to 155th Street, blacks ceased to be a majority of the population in 1998, with the change largely attribuable to the rapid arrival of new white and hispanic residents. The paper reported that the population of the area had grown more since 2000 than in any decade since the 1940s.
