"This includes a 60-foot outdoor pool and sun deck with poolside food and beverage service, as well as a state-of-the-art wellness center, spa, screening room,basketball court, and 63-foot indoor saltwater pool. Pricing for current availability at Central Park Tower starts a t$6.5 million.

“Central Park Tower’s 100th floor is unlike anything else in the world and it’s only fitting that it is located in New York City’s preeminent skyscraper,” said Gary Barnett, founder and chairman of Extell.

 

“In addition to the unmatched residences, which offer endless views, exquisite architecture, and gracious layouts, Central Park
Club is a defining element that further elevates our residents’ living experience.”

"Extell partnered with Colin Cowie Lifestyle to outfit the space with lights that will adapt with the setting sun, music that will grow in tempo from morning to night, and custom seasonal scents.

 

“We have been in the business of creating bespoke luxury experiences for 35 years but Central Park Tower is our first foray partnering with a luxury residential building,” said Colin Cowie. “Our mission as a company is about creating experiences that deliver life at the top. There is literally and figuratively no better building in the world to showcase that than at Central Park Tower.”

"The 100th-floor club includes a sprawling ballroom, a restaurant, bar and a cigar and cognac lounge. Developer Gary Barnett of Extell Development said the club was designed to give all residents of the building, regardless of how high their own unit is located, access to the building’s best views, which span the city and encompass the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn and New Jersey," the Wall Street Journal reports.

 

"For the club’s private restaurant, a trio of Michelin-Starred chefs—Laurent Tourondel, Gabriel Kreuther and Alfred Portale—have been selected to design a menu, which Colin Cowie, a celebrity party planner and the building’s lifestyle curator, described as “Mediterranean, with subtle French and Italian undertones,”

"The bar is filled with a selection of high-end liquor and wines. Mr. Cowie said the goal wasn’t to be exhaustive with the selection. “For me, there is nothing worse than when someone brings me a wine list and it’s 42-pages long,” he said. “Great style comes from ruthless editing.”

If I had that kind of money and was looking for a place, those types of amenities could sway the decision on where to buy.

Before I commit, is the $6.5 million the annual fee or monthly?
