Upper West Side $5.875 million
Although not quite as famous as his contemporary Rosario Candela, architect John Carpenter designed some pretty fabulous properties, too, including a prewar white-glove building on Riverside Drive where you'll find this "classic, elegant" co-op. It has three bedrooms, 3½ bathrooms and "incredible" river views from nearly every one of its nine rooms, including the "luxurious" 50-foot living and dining space. There's also the "gracious expanse" of a 28-foot-long gallery, off of which is the library (that could also make a fine fourth bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom). The "oversized" eat-in kitchen includes a butler's pantry and two additional storage/office areas (or maid's rooms).
