Upper West Side

CSP-70

Upper West Side from Benjamin Moore is a warm-leaning neutral with gray and taupe undertones and an LRV of 39.06, positioning it in the mid-range for light reflectance. It reads as a greyed-down warm tone rather than a clean gray or a clear beige, shifting slightly depending on surrounding colors and light temperature. At this LRV, it provides moderate depth without darkening a room significantly.

It coordinates with White Dove, Kendall Charcoal, Revere Pewter, Gray Owl, and Hale Navy, supporting both warm neutral and cool contrasting palettes.
