CENTRAL PARK, NY — Forget the giant condo towers of Columbus Circle and Central Park South, some of the best Central Park views come from the less stuffy residential buildings lining Fifth Avenue. This ninth-floor apartment unit is filled with natural light stemming from windows offering great views of the park.

The unit, which just started showing this week, is newly renovated and contains three bedrooms and four bathrooms.
