Its tower bursts with balconies!

The architects - Schuman, Lichtenstein, Claman & Efron - did a most laudable job of designing the layouts so that the balconies, many of which wrap around the building’s corners, create a richly rhythmic pattern that greatly enhances an otherwise straightforward slab tower. About three-quarters of the 263 units are one-bedroom apartments, which helps to explain the proliferation of balconies. The vertical grills of the rectilinear balconies are most attractive and add considerable detailing and finesse to the light beige-colored facades.

The building is also notable for its large health club and pool facility on a low terrace that has a large glass roof that is curved at the ends and the circular motif is picked up in oculi - small, round windows - on part of the low-rise base of the tower. The health club facility is at the east side of the tower where the building’s impressive entrance has a driveway.

The building was developed by Thomas Kenneth and Stephen LaSala and J. I. Sopher Inc. It has a concierge and doorman, a garage, climate control units in the apartments and valet service.
