The Perfect Balance: These Listings Combine Historic Manhattan with a Modern Lifestyle

In early July, the New York Historical Society announced its plans for a $140 million renovation and expansion. The iconic Upper West Side building, designed by esteemed turn-of-the-century architects York & Sawyer and completed in 1908, will undergo a five-story addition designed by modern legend Robert A.M. Stern, expected to be completed by 2024.

This juxtaposition of old and new, historic and modern, can be seen all around New York City and contributes to the city’s charm and unique architectural appeal. In light of this recent announcement, we were inspired to share a round up of listings that embody this balance of historical elements and contemporary style, allowing buyers to experience old and new New York within their own homes.
