Building Description

Consistently voted one of the top hotels in the US, The Sherry Netherland is a New York icon thanks in large part to the sidewalk clock on 5th Avenue that marks its main entrance. It's located directly across the street from the main entrance to Central Park. Thirty-eight stories tall, it encompasses 314,500 sq ft of living space, with 169 residential units and six commercial units. Now a co-op with a few remaining hotel rooms, it opened as the world's largest apartment complex in 1927.

Its lobby was modeled after the library at the Vatican and its rooms feature L'Occitane toiletries, privies by Laurent D, and flat-panel LCD televisions. White-gloved elevator attendants bring an air of yester-year, and the full concierge service includes exclusive seating to area theater and professional sports tickets. In-room massage therapy services are available in all of the 50 guest rooms, many of which possess unobstructed views of Central Park. In 1981, it was officially designated a New York City landmark. The zoned school PS 183 is just a few block away, and residents can catch the N, Q and R lines right across the street at Grand Army Plaza.

Eliza Theiss, Apr 23, 2026 $4.6M Hudson Yards Maintains Top Spot, Luxury Sales in Malba Set $2.5M Price Record for Queens
Despite prices declining, Hudson Yards remained the most expensive NYC neighborhood, but TriBeCa’s growth closed the gap to under $400,000, while Malba set a new historic price record for Queens at $2.5 million, securing the highest ranking ever for the borough at #5.
Eliza Theiss, Mar 19, 2026 Cheaper in the City? Nearly 100 Communities in Suburban NYC Surpass $1M
New Yorkers planning a move to the suburbs increasingly find their options limited, after suburban home values shot up twice as fast as NYC medians over the last decade. While larger homes and better prices were long the norm outside the five boroughs, today, many NYC buyers find their option restricted to a handful of suburban markets.
