200 Amsterdam is a residential skyscraper at the intersection of Amsterdam Avenue and 69th Street on the Upper West Side in Manhattan, New York City.[1] The lot was formerly occupied by the Lincoln Square Synagogue.[2] The tower contains 112 condominiums.

The building stands as the tallest building on the Upper West Side after topping out at 51 stories in August 2019. 50 West 66th Street will be taller if completed as planned.[3] Buildings of comparable size exist within a thousand feet to the south and east, including Tower 67 and the Park Millennium, which stand 49 and 47 stories tall, respectively.[4][5] However, in February 2020, a state judge ruled that several upper floors would have to be removed due to zoning violations. In March 2021, the ruling was overruled on appeal. The building was completed in 2021.[6]
