New York City Luxury Condos

The Urban Glass House at 330 Spring Street stands as Philip Johnson's final major residential development, completed in 2006 just after the legendary architect's death at age 98. Designed in collaboration with Alan Ritchie and taking direct inspiration from Johnson's iconic 1949 Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut, this 12-story modernist building contains 40 units positioned at the coveted intersection of SoHo, TriBeCa, and the West Village. The building's clean International Style lines and cube-like form with strategic setbacks create a striking presence, while its name proves literal—floor-to-ceiling windows dominate every residence, with the penthouse alone featuring over 70 floor-to-ceiling windows providing 360-degree city and Hudson River views.

Interiors by renowned designer Annabelle Selldorf showcase a sophisticated palette of black, gray, and silver with custom details throughout. Most apartments feature 9'9" ceilings (the penthouse boasts 12' ceilings), distinctive white oak herringbone floors that echo the brick patterns of Johnson's original Glass House, and remote-controlled motorized window shades. The custom Bulthaup kitchens with stainless steel appliances and compressed black linoleum countertops reference modernist design principles, while bathrooms feature luxurious touches like radiant heated floors and deep soaking tubs. Many units offer expansive loft-like entertaining spaces, with some living areas stretching over 40 feet in length, and several apartments include private terraces with Hudson River views.

The crown jewel penthouse spans the entire top floor with 4,266 square feet of interior space plus nearly 1,600 square feet of wraparound terraces on three sides. This five-bedroom residence features a double-sided fireplace, multiple terrace access points, and unobstructed views spanning from the Empire State Building to the Statue of Liberty. The building has attracted notable residents including performance artist Marina Abramović and gained pop culture recognition when apartment 6A was featured as Mafee's residence on the hit series "Billions."

Developed by Donald Trump and Daewoo Corporation for approximately $50 million, the building was designed by architect Costas Kondylis and was the tallest residential building in New York City at completion. The tower created controversy for exceeding the height of the neighboring UN Secretariat Building, though it was built 'as-of-right' within existing zoning regulations.

Originally constructed with 227 units that included transient and professional accommodations, the building was converted to condominiums in 2005 by Brack Capital and Stellar Management, creating 162 luxury residences.

The building's prewar grandeur is evident in its restored lobby featuring marble columns and ornate brass elevators with interiors of mahogany, marble, mother-of-pearl and brass.

In 2004, developers Ian Schrager and Aby Rosen converted the hotel into a mixed use property with 23 residential units and approximately 180 hotel rooms. The residential interiors were designed by acclaimed British architect John Pawson, while artist and director Julian Schnabel designed the hotel's public spaces in an eclectic style.

Trump Palace at 200 East 69th Street stands as one of the the tallest residential buildings on the Upper East Side, rising 634 feet across 56 stories in the heart of Lenox Hill. Designed by Frank Williams & Associates and completed in 1991, this distinctive brick tower features a crenellated Art Deco inspired crown that has become an unofficial landmark on the Upper East Side skyline. The building's yellowish-orange brick façade and complex architectural form marked a significant departure from typical Trump developments of the era, representing a more sophisticated approach to high rise design.
