Carnegie Hall Tower opened in 1991 and was designed by Cesar Pelli. The building features a vaulted entrance and a through-block grand lobby adorned with Italian marble, brass and hardwood accents similar to its landmark neighbor, Carnegie Music Hall. Many floors offer 360-degree views of New York City, including Central Park, the skyline, the Hudson and East rivers and the Atlantic Ocean. “Delivered in 1991 during an economic recession, the property took time to lease up and stabilize,” says Jeremy Shell, executive vice president of TF Cornerstone. “The market was soft but the principals of our firm were persistent in waiting out the vacancies of the early 1990s.
