The Kenilworth is a luxury 12-floor co-operative apartment building in Manhattan on the Gold Coast of Central Park West, located at 151 Central Park West,[1] at 75th Street.[2] Named for the 12-century Kenilworth Castle, construction on the residential building was completed in 1908,[3] and was designed in the French Second Empire-style by architects Townsend, Steinle and Haskell, with three units per floor.[4]
The exterior facade of carved limestone[2] and red brick walls is unchanged from the original construction with the exception of wood frame window replacement. Similar to The Prasada and The Lucerne, the entrance features banded columns.[3] Featuring a mansard roof,[2] the rooftop terrace is a common area to the residents.[4]
Notable residents
