Overview of The A Building at 425 East 13th Street

The A Building at 425 East 13th Street is an 8 story condominium completed in 2008, developed by Robert Kaliner of the Ascend Group and designed by Cetra-Ruddy. The building consists of two connected structures linked by a glass enclosed bridge, with the main 13th Street section containing 77 apartments and a smaller 14th Street section housing 7 units. Notable for its distinctive terracotta façade and modern design, the building has attracted celebrity residents including Olympic snowboarder Shaun White.

The building's standout feature is its rooftop amenity deck with swimming pool, private cabanas, and BBQ area offering panoramic city views. Additional amenities include a 24 hour doorman and concierge service, state-of-the-art fitness center, and a courtyard garden. The lobby features elegant Pietra Bedonia stone walls, setting the tone for the building's upscale character.

Apartments typically feature 9.5 foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and high end finishes including Celador oyster stone countertops, Bosch ovens, and Liebherr refrigerators. Many units include glass pocket doors, private balconies or terraces, and in-unit washer/dryers. The building offers diverse layouts from alcove studios to a four bedroom penthouse spanning 2,500 square feet with three private outdoor spaces, as well as rare duplex configurations.

Located in the heart of the East Village between First Avenue and Avenue A, the building provides easy access to the L train and is just four blocks from Union Square's multiple subway lines.
