36 Central Park South is a Privately Owned Public Space on one of the most prestigious addresses in Manhattan, facing Central Park from the south along 59th Street.

Central Park South (the section of 59th Street between Fifth and Eighth Avenues) is one of the most expensive residential addresses in the world. The buildings along this stretch enjoy unobstructed views of Central Park, a privilege that commands astronomical prices.

The street is home to landmark hotels including the Plaza Hotel and the Essex House, luxury residential towers, and the headquarters of organizations that benefit from the prestige of a Central Park address.

The POPS provides indoor public access at a building on one of the most exclusive streets in Manhattan, where a single apartment can sell for tens of millions of dollars and the park views are considered among the finest urban panoramas in the world.

This lobby space provides public access on a street where the proximity to Central Park's 843 acres of greenery has created some of the most valuable real estate on Earth.
