17 W 54th Street 9C

On the ninth floor of the lаndmarkеd Roсkefеllеr Αpartments, Reѕіdеnсe 9C іs a sun-filled one-bedroom with southern exposure over the Museum of Modern Art's sculpture garden, framed by the building's signature curved bay window and a decorative fireplace. A proper entry gallery opens to a broad living and dining room, where the bay window draws in southern light and creates a natural dining or sitting area overlooking the garden. Herringbone hardwood floors run throughout, while a prior renovation by Mojo Stumer introduced custom built-ins, pocket doors, and concealed storage. Just off the living space, the windowed galley kitchen includes a walk-in pantry, dark stone countertops, Sub-Zero refrigeration, gas cooking, and a breakfast bar for two. The bedroom is set apart from the entertaining space down a dressing hall lined with three oversized closets and enjoys the same southern exposure. The bath is finished in black-and-white checkerboard tile, with a stone-topped vanity and glass-enclosed soaking tub and shower. Newer windows and through-wall heating and air-conditioning add everyday comfort. The Rockefeller Apartments is a designated New York City landmark built in 1935-37 and designed by Wallace K. Harrison and J. André Fouilhoux in the International Style. Commissioned by John D. Rockefeller Jr. and Nelson Rockefeller, its two buildings at 17 West 54th Street and 24 West 55th Street were conceived around light, air, and a landscaped private interior garden. Residents enjoy 24-hour doorman service, a live-in resident manager, laundry facilities, resident storage, and the shared courtyard garden. A building-wide capital improvement program is underway, with plans including a renovated lobby, a new fitness center, upgraded laundry facilities, and broader infrastructure and exterior improvements. Shareholders may also install an in-apartment washer/dryer with Board approval under a recently adopted building policy. Set between Fifth and Sixth Avenues and overlooking MoMA's sculpture garden, the building is moments from Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, Carnegie Hall, Central Park, and multiple subway lines. Residence 9C offers a combination that is difficult to replicate in Midtown: southern light, substantial storage, distinguished architecture, full-service convenience, and one of the neighborhood's most distinctive outlooks. Pied-à-terres and pets are permitted, subject to Board approval. Monthly maintenance is $3,952. The apartment is currently subject to a capital assessment of $1,687 per month through August 2028.
