Perched high above the Museum of Modern Art, 53 West 53 rises up as an expression of its visionary spirit with a brilliant, inspired façade and a rich yet soft palette of museum-quality finishes. A collection of 161 spacious, light-filled, one- to four-bedroom residences offers majestic scale, generous proportions, beautifully conceived details, and stunning views across Central Park, the Hudson River, East River, and Manhattan skyline.
