Cammeyer - 650 Sixth Avenue: CARTER'S REVIEW


This handsome building was converted to a residential condominium in 2007.

The 1892 building is on the southeast corner at 20th Street and is across 20th Street from the former Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion that was designed in Gothic Revival style circa 1850 by Richard Upjohn and was converted into the Limelight disco. The disco eventually closed and a series of retailers took over part of the space and in October 2011 it was announced that part of it would be used by IHOP (The International House of Pancakes).

This residential building is also across the avenue from the former O'Neill Department Store that is being converted to residential condominiums by Elad Properties, which is also converting part of the Plaza Hotel and which also had bought this property in August, 2005 for about $47 million and then sold it for more than $70 million about a year later to its current owners, K-W 650 Associates LLC of which Klaus Kretschmann is president, according to records on file with the Department of Buildings.

The building has a 16-foot high lobby that initially after the conversion had art shows organized by the Jack Shainman Gallery and the building's marketing theme was "White Space," which is echoed in the minimalist white apartments. The lobby was highlighted by an aluminum sculpture of slanted elements.

The building's brokers changed after the conversion to Michael Shvo, then Corcoran, then Elliman and then the Core Group, which dubbed the building the Cammeyer afer a former show company.

The location is in the heart of the Ladies' Mile Historic District and the Chelsea and Flatiron neighborhoods. There is excellent shopping and public transportation in this area as well as many restaurants and boutiques.

The 7-story building has a roof deck, a gym, wine storage, and a concierge service.

The 67 apartments have ceiling heights ranging from 10? to 12 feet and sliding glass walls between living rooms and bedrooms.

Kitchens have high-gloss Poggenpohl cabinetry, Corian countertops, Sub-Zero refrigerators, Thermador ovens, and Miele dishwashers. Bathrooms have Waterworks Chord bathtubs and wall-mounted polished chrome fixtures.

Perkins Eastman is the architect for the conversion, which was undertaken by Penterium, the residential development arm of Korean firm Kumang Housing Corp.
