Connected cosmopolitan living and world-class culture
Located just south of the Upper West Side, the centrally located Lincoln Square offers residents a blend of world-class culture, urban residential living steps from Central Park and swift access to uptown and downtown Manhattan. “It has the neighborhood appeal of the Upper West Side but it has more of a metropolitan feeling compared to the rest of the area,” says Emily Lundell, an associate broker with Compass who has worked in the area since 2007. “It’s residential but still sophisticated and connected to the rest of the city’s theater and entertainment.”
The Shops at Columbus Circle are a popular retail hub.
Public plazas offer seating in Lincoln Square.

Ornate townhouses, pre-war co-ops and luxury towers
The architecture in this pocket of the city is a blend of 18th- and 19th- century townhouses, fabulously opulent brick and beaux-arts-style mid-rise condominiums and co-ops and full-service modern residential towers. The West 67th Street Artists’ Colony Historic District is a block of residential buildings developed at the turn of the 19th century for creatives. Pre-war co-ops are typically listed for between $500,000 and $2 million; condo prices range between $1 and $5 million, and ultra luxury residences such as the Tower at 50 W. 66th have asking prices in the tens of millions of dollars. As a general rule, prices decline at the far west side of the neighborhood.
