About This Property
Penthouse 2009 - A Grand Triplex Above The Plaza Hotel
Crowning one of the most iconic addresses in the world, Penthouse 2009 is a remarkable triplex residence spanning over 6,000 square feet, offering private outdoor space and breathtaking, unobstructed views over Central Park.
Seamlessly connected by a private in-home elevator, the residence is defined by its scale, architectural presence, and thoughtfully curated design.
A formal entry opens into a dramatic, baronial living room, where soaring proportions, a striking marble bar, and direct Central Park views create an unforgettable arrival experience. A gracious formal dining room, anchored by a statement wine wall, flows into a spectacular eat-in kitchen featuring top-tier appliances, a skylight, and approximately 21-foot ceilings.
This entertaining level is further complemented and flanked by a media room overlooking Fifth Avenue and a Park-facing office, while a grand staircase ascends to the upper floor; an entire level devoted to the primary suite.
The primary suite is a true private sanctuary, offering approximately 33 feet of park-facing terrace, a generous sitting area, dual spa-quality marble bathrooms, double dressing rooms, a private bar with wine cooler, and a dedicated laundry room - all thoughtfully arranged to maximize comfort, privacy, and views.
On a separate and private lower level, three (3) additional bedrooms (each with en-suite baths), provide exceptional accommodations for family or guests.
Penthouse 2009 represents a rare opportunity to live within The Plaza Hotel, a National Historic Landmark renowned for its legacy of hosting world leaders, cultural icons, and timeless New York moments. Residents enjoy a private entrance on 59th Street and full access to the hotel's legendary white-glove services, including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, as well as preferred access to the Palm Court, Champagne Bar, Guerlain Spa, and fitness center.
A home of this scale, provenance, and position - overlooking Central Park from the crown of The Plaza - is truly without parallel.
We look forward to arranging your private tour of this exceptional residence.
