A singular presence in Midtown Manhattan, 9 West 54th Street is an unparalleled opportunity to acquire a landmark trophy asset with deep architectural pedigree and flexible potential for commercial or institutional use. This six-story Beaux-Arts limestone mansion offers up to 35,000 RSF across approximately 5,000 square feet per floor, with a commanding 50 feet of frontage and a position directly across from the Museum of Modern Art. Set on a 100-foot-deep lot, the building is zoned for a variety of uses and is ready for immediate occupancy, featuring a new HVAC system, vertical transportation, and multiple grand staircases.

The property’s interiors are a masterclass in historic opulence, with 12 fireplaces, ornate stained-glass windows, original millwork, columned archways, and double-height ceilings—some soaring up to nearly 14 feet. The parlor floor is a showpiece, offering two massive rooms framed by full-height windows and Juliet balconies, complemented by a formal library, an octagonal dining room with a butler’s pantry, and a glass conservatory overlooking a tranquil garden. The existing layout includes a combination of oversized rooms and smaller chambers throughout its upper floors, ideal for private offices, boardrooms, client-facing suites, or gallery and showroom spaces.

A full-service kitchen, landscaped garden, and lower-level garden-access suite support operations for hospitality or institutional programming, while the building’s premier location near Billionaires’ Row, Central Park, MoMA, and Fifth Avenue ensures unmatched visibility and access. Designed in 1896 by the storied firm McKim, Mead & White and once home to the U.S. Trust Company, this is a generational offering—available for purchase for the first time in decades. Whether reimagined as a private foundation, diplomatic residence, brand headquarters, or boutique hospitality venue, 9 West 54th presents the rarest blend of location, architecture, and scale in the heart of Manhattan.
