C.P.H. Gilbert could design 'a mean Neo-Gothic mansion,' as one New York Times story put it, showcasing his architectural prowess during the Gilded Age.

The 7.5M undersea earthquake off the northeastern coast of Japan prompted a brief tsunami warning early Monday, felt hundreds of miles away in Tokyo.

Sabahs are made entirely by hand from 100% leather in either Texas or Turkey—two regions with distinct yet deeply rooted relationships to the material. The result is a shoe that varies subtly from pair to pair, even within the same size.

Miller and Mars scoured lower Manhattan and Brooklyn for a brownstone that would meet their needs, but it wasn't until they discovered a gem nestled on a quiet Upper West Side block that they knew they'd found the one.

The five-bedroom Greek Revival residence spans roughly 8,000 square feet across six levels connected by an elevator. It also has multiple terraces with over 800 square feet of outdoor space.

"There was so much beauty, so much more than enough for everyone, that it did appear to be a vain activity to try and make a corner in it." This quote captures the essence of Villa Beatrice, where beauty and luxury converge in a breathtaking setting.

The two-family at 194 Berkeley Place boasts an abundance of mantels, wood floors, interior shutters, a pier mirror, and more, showcasing its historic charm.

The penthouse residence by Metaphors is defined by a balance of extremes, where bold neo-classical elements are combined with the raw mass of brutalism.

This allows the residence to function as a versatile home, shifting between an expansive stage for high-society hosting and a series of intimate, quiet sanctuaries for family life.

The street's ultra-luxury towers - from the first generation of supertalls west of Sixth Avenue that shaped the skyline, to mixed-use developments eastward 'driving the next phase of growth' - offer a dense concentration of cultural and lifestyle capital, paired with direct access to Central Park.

Earlier this week, former Howard Hughes CEO David Weinreb agreed to rent his West Chelsea penthouse for $177,500 a month, an eye-popping figure that followed a $95,000-a-month lease at a Naftali Group building on the Upper East Side in December. Data on trophy rentals is tough to pin down, but this is likely among the most expensive leases ever inked in New York City. The two hefty leases came as inventory for Manhattan's trophy rentals—which appraiser Jonathan Miller defines as the top 1 percent of the market, with rates starting at $25,000 a month—was down more than 40 percent year-over-year in January, as new leases climbed (albeit, at a more modest pace).
