Overview of The Adeline at 23 West 116th Street

The Adeline is a 12-story, 83 unit condominium at 23 West 116th Street in Harlem, completed in 2014 by L & M Development Partners and designed by Perkins Eastman Architects. The building is named after Adeline Waller, mother of legendary jazz pianist Fats Waller and wife of Reverend Waller, a minister at the Abyssinian Baptist Church. The light gray brick façade features seven thin black window surrounds and a syncopated setback, an intentional nod to the Jazz Age that cost additional construction funds but added architectural distinction. The development also includes an adjacent 9-story building with 111 affordable rental units and sits across from the Kalahari, another L & M project.

Apartments feature wide plank oak floors by Du Chateau, 9 to 10 foot ceilings, and oversized 8 foot high windows. Kitchens are open concept with islands, matte lacquer cabinetry, marbled Caesarstone countertops and backsplashes, and KitchenAid gas ranges with Bosch appliances. All units include in-unit Bosch washers and dryers, central heating and cooling via vertical heat pumps, and Toto toilets in master bathrooms. Select units feature expansive terraces, and two bedroom layouts typically offer 19 to 24 foot living/dining rooms with open kitchens.

The building offers full service amenities including a 24 hour doorman and concierge, a 5,000 square foot landscaped second floor courtyard, and a 2,300 square foot furnished roof deck with 360 degree city views. Additional amenities include a fitness center, children's playroom, residents' lounge, screening room, bike storage, on-site parking operated by iPark (for a fee), storage units, and a refrigerated package room with cold storage. The building is pet friendly and benefits from a 421a tax abatement in effect until 2039.

The Adeline is well positioned near Central Park, Marcus Garvey Park, and Morningside Park, with convenient access to the 2/3/6/B/C subway lines and Metro North. The neighborhood offers diverse dining options including Red Rooster, Lido, Vinateria, Clay, and Barawine, plus grocery shopping at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. Blink Fitness is located next door, and Columbia University and Mount Sinai are nearby.
