Nestled on Manhattan’s illustrious “Billionaires Row,” The Sheffield stands as a beacon of luxury living. This white-glove condominium, located on the prestigious 57th Street, was originally conceived by Hyman Shapiro and brought to life in 1978. The architectural vision of Master Architect Emery Roth & Sons initially designed The Sheffield as a high-end rental property. However, in 2005, CetraRuddy Architects reimagined and transformed it into the ultra-luxury condominiums it is celebrated as today.
The Sheffield, soaring fifty-eight stories high, presents a diverse range of residences, from expansive four-bedroom homes to chic studios. Each unit is designed to maximize the breathtaking panoramic views encompassing Central Park, the Hudson River, and the iconic Midtown skyline. The residences vary in size and layout, with select larger units extending to nearly 3,500 square feet and boasting coveted triple exposures, ensuring abundant natural light and city vistas. Even the sophisticated studios are strategically designed to capture and showcase the remarkable cityscape.
