The Ansonia stands out as one of The Upper West Side's premier prewar condominium buildings. Steeped in history, having been home to many celebrated residents including Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Gustav Mahler, Arturo Toscanini, Sergei Rachmaninoff, and Igor Stravinsky. The building was later known as the home of the Continental Baths where Bette Midler and Barry Manilow performed early in their careers. It was added to the National Register of Historic places in 1980 and was converted to a condominium in 1992. The exquisite Beaux-Arts facade, ultra-wide hallways, and opulent grand staircase make it one of the most beautiful, recognizable, and unique buildings in New York.
