Majestic Towers
Gazing up its unassuming facade, Majestic Towers may not immediately conjure up raucous images of the roaring 1920s or even provoke passersby to take notice, but to those in-the-know, this prewar co-op has a fascinating, albeit clandestine, history. But before jumping back in time, let’s start with today: Marie Tango, a long-time resident and former president of the board for over 20 years, has seen Majestic Towers change over the years, but said she was initially attracted to its sense of timelessness that comes with prewar design. “I’m very partial to older architecture — just the feel of it and the construction of the building itself,” Tango says of 215 West 75th Street, which was designed by the architectural firm Schwartz and Gross. Completed in 1924, the 15-story, brick-clad building originally consisted of apartments, before being converted to co-ops in the late 1980s. “When I went to buy, I wanted to concentrate on prewar, and this fit the bill,” Tango adds, noting the unique layout, good-sized rooms and windowed bathrooms and kitchens. “These were all things I was looking for.” And as with much of New York City real estate, the prime Upper West Side location also factored into her decision: “It was really beautifully located,” she recalls. “I wanted it to be on Broadway because I was traveling a lot and coming in and out at all hours. I wanted to feel comfortable getting a cab at 3 a.m. When I came into the building, it had just begun changing to a co-op.” After moving in, she was not only pleased with her buy, but also with the burgeoning sense of community she found amongst her neighbors. Today, considering the various combinations over the years, there are around 110 units — primarily consisting of one-bedrooms with some studios and a few two-bedrooms — with two penthouse units built at the roof level, as well as a duplex. But what most don’t know at first sight is that the building holds several secrets within its uniquely designed layouts.
