Overview of 88 & 90 Lex at 90 Lexington Avenue

88 & 90 Lexington Avenue is a distinctive condominium complex in Manhattan’s NoMad neighborhood, blending the best of historic and modern architecture. This unique development combines the neoclassical elegance of 88 Lexington, a 17-story building erected in 1927 by Necarsulmer & Lehlbach, with the contemporary design of 90 Lexington, a 13-story building originally built as an office structure in 1959 by Carson & Lundin. Together, these buildings provide an unparalleled living experience, merging pre-war charm with cutting-edge modern conveniences.

In 2015, Ziel Feldman of HFZ Capital converted the two properties, originally rental buildings, into luxury condominiums, creating a sophisticated, amenity-rich environment. 88 Lexington was transformed into a state-of-the-art luxury residence featuring world-class amenities, including an indoor swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, landscaped roof deck with BBQ area, private theater, children's playroom, a party room, and 24-hour concierge service. The sunlit indoor pool, sleek avant-garde lobby, and upper-floor units offering sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline are among the highlights of this development.

90 Lexington, originally known as the Lex Lofts, was converted from an office building into 73 condominium units. Acquired by HFZ Capital in 2013 for $55 million, the building was previously owned by Westwood Partners, which had purchased it in 2007 for $30 million. Before that, Henry Mandel transformed it into rental apartments in 1976 after acquiring the building from Blue Cross/Blue Shield.

The building features a fitness center, a live-in superintendent, and laundry facilities on every floor. The shared roof deck offers unique water features and video projections, creating a one-of-a-kind ambiance. Workplace/APD, the firm known for its work on the Printing House in the West Village, designed the interiors of both buildings, ensuring that the spaces exude modern luxury while maintaining historical character.

88 & 90 Lex’s location provides access to a vibrant neighborhood filled with restaurants, shops, and cultural landmarks. Residents enjoy proximity to Madison Square Park, famous skyscrapers, and popular eateries like Shake Shack and Eataly. The area is also rich with public transportation options, making it convenient for city living. A significant attraction for food lovers is the neighborhood’s collection of Indian restaurants, enhancing the cosmopolitan feel of the community.
