The Spencer Condominium, #PH

This spectacular terraced Penthouse is Perched high atop one of the finest limestone-sheathed mansions. Steps from Fifth Avenue, the full service Pre-War Condominium was designed by renowned architect Horace Trumbauer in the neo-French Classic style. The 42-foot wide mansion is one of the few remaining examples of the architect's "great houses" in New York.
