Overview of Ariel East at 2628 Broadway

Completed in 2007, Ariel East is a 37-story, 400-foot tall luxury condominium tower located on Broadway between 99th and 100th Streets on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Designed by Cetra/Ruddy for Extell Development Company, the building contains 64 residences and is distinguished by its reflective-glass façade with red piping accents and seven dramatic setbacks facing Broadway.

The development was made possible through the acquisition of air rights from St. Michael's Episcopal Church, and along with its sister building Ariel West across Broadway, significantly altered the northern skyline of the Upper West Side. The twin towers marked a notable shift in the area's architectural landscape, which had previously been dominated by landmarks like the Riverside Church and the Master Apartments.

Residents enjoy an extensive suite of amenities including a private theater, swimming pool, billiards lounge, La Palestra fitness center, garden, children's playroom, and pet spa. The building features several private terraces on the 8th, 16th, 21st, 27th, 33rd and 36th floors, and is situated adjacent to the historic Art Deco-style Metro Theater.
