in the City’s Cultural Core
Residence 17A at 200 Amsterdam is more than a home—it’s a front-row seat to the rhythm, refinement, and richness of Lincoln Square.

To live at the doorstep of Lincoln Center is to reside in the cultural epicenter of New York City. Here, the storied stages of the Metropolitan Opera, the New York Philharmonic, and the New York City Ballet await, while the vibrant streets of Lincoln Square and the Upper West Side offer a daily rhythm of artisanal cafés, boutique shopping, and world-class dining. It is a lifestyle steeped in sophistication, where every evening holds the promise of a curtain rise, and every morning begins with the hum of a neighborhood that never stops inspiring.
In this corner of the city, a birdsong from Central Park, there are a few rarefied addresses that stand tall—not just in height, but in vision. Perched on the 17th floor of 200 Amsterdam Avenue, Residence 17A is one such place: a luminous, meticulously crafted home that feels less like a condominium and more like a private observatory for the soul of Manhattan.
A foyer with White Ice marble flooring leads to a spacious living and dining area with 10-foot ceilings and custom French white oak chevron-patterned floors. The open-plan design enhances the flow between spaces.

But what truly sets 200 Amsterdam apart is its holistic approach to urban living. The building’s amenities rival those of a five-star resort: a 75-foot saltwater pool, a state-of-the-art fitness center curated by The Wright Fit, a meditation room, a golf simulator, and even dedicated music rehearsal spaces. There’s a library for quiet afternoons, a landscaped terrace for golden-hour cocktails, and a private dining room for evenings that call for something more intimate.
In a city that never stops moving, Residence 17A offers a rare kind of stillness. It’s a place to watch the world go by—elevated, serene, and utterly singular.

From the moment you step into the foyer—floored in White Ice marble and bathed in natural light—you sense that this is no ordinary apartment. The residence spans nearly 2,900 square feet, but its true scale is measured in light and air. With sweeping exposures to the south, east, and west, the home is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, offering cinematic views of the skyline, the Hudson River, and the green canopy of Central Park. It’s a panorama that shifts with the hour and the season, a living mural of New York’s ever-changing moods.
The interiors are a masterclass in quiet luxury. French white oak floors in a chevron pattern lend warmth and texture, while soaring 10-foot ceilings amplify the sense of openness. The kitchen, a sculptural centerpiece in its own right, is outfitted with honed Calacatta marble, custom Italian oak cabinetry, and a suite of integrated Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances. It’s a space designed not just for cooking, but for gathering, for lingering, for living.
Each of the four bedrooms is a private retreat, complete with en-suite baths and bespoke storage. The primary suite, facing southwest, is particularly indulgent: a walk-in closet worthy of a Fifth Avenue boutique, and a spa-like bathroom clad in Calacatta Cielo marble, with radiant-heated floors, a deep soaking tub, and Fantini fittings that feel more like jewelry than hardware.
A seamless blend of space and light, the open-plan living and dining areas are designed for both quiet reflection and elegant entertaining.
Expansive windows and soaring ceilings create a luminous sanctuary high above the Upper West Side.
Framed by floor-to-ceiling glass, the great room offers sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline and an abundance of natural light.
