While Covid-19 has impacted in-person visits to sales galleries and tours of buildings, technology is being deployed to host virtual sales tours for interested International and domestic buyers to showcase each development. Now’s a better time than ever to view some of the most luxurious buildings in Manhattan that you weren’t able to before.
111 West 57th Street
111 West 57th Street, is a bold yet graceful residential tower that soars perfectly centered over Central Park in Midtown Manhattan. The tower is the second tallest residential building in the Western Hemisphere and recently topped out at 1,428 feet following the installation of a 300-foot decorative steel crown, paying homage to the most iconic and celebrated skyscrapers of Manhattan’s pre-war Golden Age. Architecture by SHoP Architects and interior architecture by William Sofield. With only one residence per floor, the design of each of the tower’s 46 full-floor and duplex residences maximize the astounding park and skyline views.
The XI
The XI features architecture by Bjarke Ingels. It is a mixed-use residential and commercial development realized through an extraordinary collaboration between the world’s most visionary minds, including BIG, Gabellini Sheppard Associates, Gilles & Boissier, Enzo Enea, and Six Senses. Soaring above the Hudson River and the High Line and occupying one square block between 17th and 18th Streets between 10th and 11th Avenues, TheXI is comprised of two towers clad in travertine and bronze. The XI offers 236 luxury condominium residences, as well as the first US hotel destination by Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas (awarded World’s #1 Hotel Brand by Travel + Leisure in 2017, 2018 and 2019).
11 Hoyt
Featuring architecture designed by critically acclaimed Jeanne Gang and interiors by Michaelis Boyd Associates, 11 Hoyt is a 57-story tower that rises 660 feet and spans almost an entire city block with frontage along Hoyt, Livingston and Elm Street. Located in downtown Brooklyn, one of the building’s distinctive features is an elevated, private park for residents that surround the building. Measuring nearly 27,000-square-feet it is built atop a two-story base that houses 40,000 square feet of retail space. The building includes 481 residences ranging from studio to four-bedrooms and an expansive collection of more than 55,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenities.
The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria
The Waldorf Astoria has been a beacon of timeless glamour for nearly a century—home to Hollywood’s elite, host to countless world leaders, and the site of famed cultural events and galas. The property is in the midst of an unprecedented restoration, undertaken with care by developer Dajia Insurance Group and renowned architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
The wide variety of residences at The Towers of the Waldorf Astoria range from gracious studios to opulent four bedrooms and penthouses, many with unique floorplans and private outdoor spaces. Privacy and security are paramount, with a discrete residential experience separate from the hotel, two fully-staffed entry lobbies, a porte cochère with 24-hour valet service, and concierge closest into the entryway for every residence, allowing for secure delivery of packages and room service.
565 Broome SoHo
565 Broome SoHo is Pritzker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano's first residential building in NYC and the tallest residential tower in SoHo. Renzo's vision for the building is shaped by light, which led him to design conjoined glass towers with curved corners and a unique "low-iron" glass with a crystal-like sheen that allows the facade to take on the color of the weather, as well as to create clear views from the interiors.
565 Broome SoHo features 17,000 square feet of amenities, highlighted by a 92-foot tall indoor conservatory with live green walls and three full-grown black olive trees; 55-foot long saltwater pool; private gated porte cochere that leads to the automated parking system (located above ground and encased in glass so cars are visible from street level). Residents also have access to a children’s playroom, 24-hour concierge and attended double-height lobby, fully equipped fitness center, and landscaped outdoor terrace.
