Like much of Stern's work, the building is New Classical in style. The exterior of the building is clad in limestone, similar to Stern's other New York City skyscrapers including 15 Central Park West, 30 Park Place and 220 Central Park South. The developer, Arthur Zeckendorf has described the building as the East Side sister of 15 Central Park West.[8]
The building has 35 apartments in its 64 stories including a $130 million triplex penthouse.[9] Prices begin at over $20 million for a 4,600 square feet (430 m2) apartment, and residences close to the top have balconies.[10][11]
Amenities
The building includes an outside garden, private movie theater, children's playroom, swimming pool, wine cellars and a bi-level fitness center. The building offers more than 15,000 square feet (1,400 m2) of amenities and amenity spaces for residents.[12][13][10]
History
February 2020
The developers had been planning a building since 2006, but were delayed by difficulties vacating the previous commercial building on the site. Plans for the building were first announced in December 2012, with the selection of Robert A.M. Stern Architects.[14] Shortly after, the developers purchased 70,000 square feet (6,500 m2) of air rights from the neighboring Christ Church United Methodist and Grolier Club for over $40 million.[15] The design was officially unveiled in March 2014, and the building was completed in 2018.[16] The last penthouse unit was sold in 2024.[17]
