We rounded up some of the best luxury buildings offering amenities geared toward book lovers with designated reading rooms and curated libraries.
The Waldorf Astoria is amidst an unprecedented restoration by renowned architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill to reopen as a 375-key hotel and 375 condominium residences to be known as The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria. With sophisticated residential interiors and amenities by internationally renowned designer Jean-Louis Deniot, residents will have access to over 50,000 square feet of private residential amenities and all of the services of the Waldorf Astoria New York hotel.
The Waldorf Astoria New York partnered with The White House Historical Association for the first-ever Presidential Library curation, establishing an elegant and light-filled library with couches for residents to enjoy the novel collection. In addition, the Library will contain books on all of the hotel’s globally-renowned guests that had previously stayed at the hotel.
Coterie Hudson Yards, developed by Related Companies in partnership with industry care leader Atria Senior Living, provides exceptional care, hospitality offerings, and high-end design for cosmopolitan seniors.
Among these amenities is a thoughtfully curated library for residents with over 800 hand-selected titles in partnership with renowned local independent bookstore McNally Jackson. Additionally, residents have access to frequent book readings from authors and book clubs where they can discuss their favorite books.
378 West End Avenue is a new condominium on Manhattan’s Upper West Side designed by COOKFOX Architects, which includes the restoration of an existing, original 1915 Palazzo-style building overlooking the historic Collegiate Church combined with a newly constructed 18-story tower.
378 West End Avenue features over 11,000 square feet of amenities. A cozy Reading Room filled with stacks of books to choose from is connected to the Garden Terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor sanctuary.
Just a short commute from New York City is The Beacon at Garvies Point, the first waterfront condominiums located within the Garvies Point community in the heart of Glen Cove, Long Island. The Beacon’s hotel-inspired services and vast array of amenities compliment the natural beauty of Garvies Point, offering a 24-hour concierge, seasonal outdoor heated swimming pool, and a residents’ lounge. One of the most popular amenities is a library with a fireplace, which some residents love to utilize for group activities like their resident book club.
