Formerly a rental, this incredible 111-year-old building has been transformed into 81 co-ops. In addition to its beautiful exterior, The Chatsworth features wonderful residences and an ideal location in the Upper West Side.
History
The history of The Chatsworth dates all the way back to 1904. When this building was constructed, it redefined what prestigious living meant in New York City. With its view overlooking the Hudson River, the building’s name was borrowed from the most impressive estate in all of England.
John E. Scharsmith, who was the building’s architect, turned to the French Beaux-Arts for inspiration. That lead to decorative elements in the building’s limestone like stags, fruit and cherubs. Because the city’s elite were so impressed by the “largest and most complete building of its kind in the world,” it quickly become a haven for high society.
After being officially recognized as a landmark in 1984, the building’s re-imagination honors its long and glamorous history.
Architecture
