NYC Apartments
Penthouse Apartments in NYC (2026)
NYC penthouses are top-floor apartments typically with a private terrace, multiple exposures, and setback construction from the street level. True penthouses are rare and command major premiums — often $10,000-$50,000+/month in prime Manhattan buildings. Watch for "PH" listings that are just high floors without the defining penthouse features.
