From Curtain Calls to City Views - The Residence that Echoes Broadway's Golden Age: Former home of the Broadway Legend, Charles Strouse.

A Rare Two-in-One Opportunity

Thoughtfully combined, this unique residence offers the flexibility of two adjoining homes under one roof.

Residence 19C: An expansive 3-4 bedroom, 3-bathroom layout with generous living and entertaining spaces.

Residence 19D: A spacious 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom suite with its own full kitchen and private entrance.

Perfect for those who want the convenience of keeping loved ones, guests, or staff close by-while still maintaining privacy and independence.

Perched high above the city in the prestigious Parc Vendome, this expansive 3,760 sq.ft. sun-drenched residence on the 19th floor offers timeless elegance, extraordinary proportions, and sweeping, unobstructed south-facing views of the New York City skyline. Located along world-renowned West 57th Street, in a distinguished 1930 building by Farrar & Watmough for Henry Mandel, this grand home is a rare offering in one of Manhattan's most celebrated prewar condominiums.

The home also carries a remarkable artistic history. Once the home of legendary Broadway composer Charles Strouse and his family, whose beloved works include Annie and Bye Bye Birdie, this residence holds a special place in New York's cultural history. The apartment's sunken living room-sometimes transformed into a theatre space-served as a creative haven where Strouse wrote, composed, and entertained family, fellow artists and friends, infusing the home with a rich artistic spirit that endures to this day.

Entering through a dramatic open loft gallery, you're immediately greeted by light and scale. The stately south-facing living room boasts a wood-burning fireplace and panoramic views that capture the vibrant energy of the city by day and the glittering skyline by night. A spacious library/den, formal dining room, and separate kitchen offer an ideal layout for entertaining and everyday living. Though the finishes are classic, the home offers opportunity for personalization or modernization and presents a rare canvas for a spectacular home.

Currently configured with four bedrooms and four bathrooms, the flexible floor plan includes two living rooms and two kitchens, allowing for a variety of living arrangements and the potential to create a fifth bedroom. Every room is bathed in natural light, further enhancing the sense of space and warmth throughout the home.

The Parc Vendome is a landmarked full-service condominium, just two blocks from Central Park and Columbus Circle, with close proximity to Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, the Time Warner Center, and some of the city's finest dining, shopping, and cultural destinations. Building amenities include a 24-hour doorman, an award-winning English tea garden with fountain, landscaped rooftop terrace and sundeck, music and billiards rooms, private library, club room, banquet and dining facilities with catering kitchen, bike room, package room, and private storage (available for rent).

Convenient to major transportation, including the 57th Street crosstown bus and the 1, A, B, C, and D subway lines, this residence offers the ultimate blend of classic New York charm, modern city living, and an enduring piece of Broadway history.
