Restored to its former glory, this modernized prewar rental spoke to the changing nature of the Upper West Side. Recognizing the community-oriented draw of the Upper West Side alongside the possibilities of an amenity-rich product, the Windermere set itself apart by offering a level of service and quality no other nearby property could match. High ceilings, oak floors, and hotel-like amenities combined to change the perception of the neighborhood and make the Upper West Side undeniably ‘cool’ again.
