Residents will have exclusive access to over 50,000 square feet of private residential amenities, ranging from health and wellness to entertaining and business spaces, all brilliantly designed by Jean-Louis Deniot.

Waldorf Astoria New York set the standard and defined hotel service at an ultra-luxury level, and future residents of the condominiums will enjoy priority access to the unrivaled services of the hotel, including signing privileges at restaurants and bars, preferred pricing, and a la carte services like housekeeping and 24-hour in-residence dining.
