The well-appointed, palatial residences were designed and built to appeal to the prominent citizens of its day and its illustrious history of residents does not disappoint. The Osborne is a neighbor to fine shops, restaurants, Central Park and Carnegie Hall. It is a designated New York City Landmark and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
