New York City Luxury Condos

The 17-story, 53-unit building at 160 West 12th Street is part of the Greenwich Lane development. FXCollaborative was the architect of transformation of St. Vincent's Hospital into one of the city's most sought-after condominiums.

Finely crafted apartments combine old New York glamour with modern living. Amenities include a central garden with landscaping by M. Paul Friedberg & Partners, a dedicated fitness floor with pool and golf simulator, a private screening room with wet bar, a lounge with dining room, and kitchen, a 24-hour attended lobby, and an underground garage.

Deep in the heart of Greenwich Village, the Greenwich Lane is a short walk from the High Line, the Meatpacking District, and Chelsea. The New York City AIDS Memorial is across the street.

From the outside, the Baccarat is a 50-story, mixed-use tower at 20 West 53^rd Street that looks like a tall, slim, mid-block tower on a low base.

Its form is simple and a bit routine, but one should regard it, however, as a jewel case for its interiors are quite dazzling.

Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill for Starwood Hotels, which is headed by Barry Sternlicht, it contains 61 residential condominiums above 114 hotel rooms.

Tony Ingrao was the interior designer.

One Madison at 23 East 22nd Street is located at the crossroads of Chelsea, Madison Square Park, Gramercy and the Flatiron District.

It is situated at the start of Madison Avenue. Its prior owners sold the building and it is now managed by the Related Companies. Residences are spacious and feature floor-to-ceiling windows that open to the surrounding cityscape. Kitchens and bathrooms have modern appliances and fixtures and many offer views of the Empire State Building and Midtown.

The building's One Club features amenities such as a private dining room with a gourmet catering kitchen, a lounge, a parlor with a billiards table, a lap pool, a spa with a glass-enclosed steam room overlooking Madison Square Park, a fitness center with yoga room and a children's playroom.

This attractive, 13-story apartment building at 40 West 66^th Street on the southeast corner at Madison Avenue was erected in 1929 and converted to a condominium by Vornado Realty Trust in 2008. 

It was developed by Edward Kaye and A. Morris Levy and designed by Rosario Candela. 

It originally had 35 three-bedroom apartments and now has 33 condominium apartments.

The second best pre-war apartment building in the city in the post-war period is this limestone-clad, 19-story, mid-block building at 135 East 79^th Street between Park and Lexington Avenues.

The building was erected in 2013 and has 32 condominium apartments. It was built by The Brodsky Organization and designed by William Sofield, a designer whose clients have included Gucci and Tom Ford.

Deep in the Far West Village, the 15-story, 91-unit full-service condominium at 150 Charles Street overlooks the Hudson River. Interiors by Alan Wanzenberg feature hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, loft-style windows, beautiful proportions, abundant closet space, and top-of-the-line kitchens.

Amenities at 150 Charles Street include an attended lobby, hotel concierge service, state-of-the-art fitness center, pool and spa, event room with catering kitchen, drive-in entry, and elegant courtyard and Zen garden. It is a very short walk from Hudson River Park, the High Line, and the Meatpacking District.

This handsome, 16-story, beige-brick condominium apartment building was completed in 1999 and has only 20 units.

It was erected by the Macklowe Development Company, which has built many of the city's top luxury apartment buildings such as the Metropolitan Tower at 136 West 56th Street.

This building was designed by Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer Associates, one of the city's leading architects of preservation projects, and Schuman Lichtenstein Claman & Efron.

Across Lexington Avenue from Lenox Hill Hospital, it has numerous balconies, some terraces and an attractive rooftop watertank enclosure. It has a two-story, rusticated limestone base, curved, wrought-iron balcony railings that are painted white, and limestone orbs on some of the terraces.

The building has a private residents' salon with a garden and fountain. Apartments have 10-foot-high ceilings and range in size from three to five bedrooms and have convertible libraries and formal dining rooms, a housekeeper's room, and kitchens with breakfast areas.

It is directly across 76h Street from the exceedingly attractive St. Jean Baptiste Roman Catholic Church that was erected in 1913 and designed by Nicholas Seffacino. In the late 1990s, the church sold its unused "air rights" that were used to erect a very handsome luxury apartment tower at the eastern end of the block on Third Avenue.

Although this might have been a more attractive building if it had been clad in red brick, the beige brick façade is more in "context" with the limestone façade of the church.

This is a quintessential New York location as there is tremendous bustle along the avenue here with many small stores and one block to the south on the avenue was Mortimer's, one of the city's most famous social watering holes until it closed in 1999, but it was reopened as Orsay, which is a very popular restaurant.

There is excellent cross-town bus service nearby on 79th Street and a subway station at Lexington and 77th Street.

The 60-story residential condominium tower at 56 Leonard Street in TriBeCa was designed by Herzog & de Meuron. The striking design of the 145-unit building involves each floor being different and rotated from the floors above and below. Each unit has a private balcony.

The floor-to-ceiling glass window walls in the condo offer generous views of the cityscape, water, bridges and beyond. Two floors of amenities include a 75-foot infinity pool, a sundeck, a fitness center, a spa, a library lounge, a screening room, and a conference room.

This 21-story apartment building was one of the first to be erected on Fifth Avenue after World War II.

Across the park from the boat pond in Central Park, the building has a wonderful, highly desirable location and great views from many apartments.

The 92-unit building, which was designed by S. L. Bien, was converted to a condominium in 1983.

The building, which has a white-brick façade over a two-stone limestone base, has an elegant entrance, a sunken lobby, a doorman and elevator persons. The building's lobby is very attractive with a marble floor and handsomely incised bronze elevator doors.

There are mail chutes on each floor.

Over the years, many of the corner balconies on the avenue have been enclosed. The balconies have attractively designed metal railings and the building has a garage.

200 Eleventh Avenue is best known for a singular amenity: residents do not park their cars in a garage, but rather, within their units. It opened in 2010.

Situated just south of 24th Street, the 19-story 200 Eleventh Avenue contains 16 expansive residences that boast views of the Hudson River and the skyline. It has simplexes with terraces, duplexes and penthouses ranging in size from 1,300 to 3,500 square feet. Minimum ceiling heights of 11 feet – along with some double-height ceilings measuring between 16 and 24 feet – enhance open layouts.

Fourteen of the apartments have access to the innovative parking system. Amenities also include a full-time attended lobby, a fitness center with a terrace and central air conditioning.

200 Eleventh Avenue is located a block from the Hudson River and is close to the Chelsea Piers entertainment complex, as well as many restaurants, boutiques and art galleries.

One York Street is located in TriBeCa and opened in 2008.

The project was designed by Mexican starchitect Enrique Norten and features 32 loft units in a modern 13-story glass structure that's flanked by two low-rise wings, creating a single new complex. Residences have windows that are thermally and acoustically insulated to reduce street noise and feature wide plank oak floors, 8-foot wood doors and modern appliances. Master bathrooms have custom-designed vanities and whirlpool tubs.

1 York Street features a Swiss-engineered, automated parking garage: drivers simply pull up to an entrance pad, get out, swipe a card and walk away. The robotic parking valet then takes over, pulling the car into a lift that transports it to one of 40 slots. To retrieve the car, drivers swipe their card again and the car magically reappears. Amenities also include a 24-hour concierge, an outdoor 28-foot heated pool with sundeck and outdoor shower, a private health club and spa and temperature-controlled storage cellars.

One York Street’s northern TriBeCa location is very near to SoHo as well as many restaurants and cafes. It is also close to the Holland Tunnel.

The Fairchild at 55 Vestry Street was constructed in 2009 but maintains the charm and character that define TriBeCa.

The pet-friendly Fairchild consists of 21 spacious loft apartments. Its developers ensured each of the residences was meticulously designed: all units feature walnut stained hardwood flooring and central air conditioning and heating, while many have 22-foot-high ceilings. Poggenpohl kitchens are equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and master bathrooms have quality fixtures and polished floors.

Amenities at the Fairchild include an attended lobby, concierge service, a refrigerated storeroom and private storage. Residents can also access all of the services the nearby Greenwich Hotel offers, including a fitness club, a spa and an indoor pool. 55 Vestry Street is close to the restaurants along Greenwich Street and the boutiques in SoHo, as well as public transportation.

The Superior Ink development in the West Village is a large project that combines a tall building facing the Hudson River and low-rise buildings on the rest of the block.

Its massing is somewhat similar to another waterfront project completed a few years earlier several blocks to the south, Morton Square.

This one was developed by the Related Companies and was completed in 2010.

It was designed by Robert A. M. Stern, who is best known for 15 Central Park West, the Chatham and the Brompton.

This development has a 17-story tower with 62 apartments on West Street with two setbacks and 7 townhouses on Bethune Street.

This very handsome, 20-story apartment building at 737 Park Avenue on the northeast corner at 71^st Street was designed in 1940 by Sylvan Bien for Samuel Minskoff.

It was converted to a condominium by Harry Macklowe in 2014 and has 60 apartments.  It originally had more than 100 apartments.

Other buildings by Sylvan Bien include 605, 710 and 1199 Park Avenue, 860, 922 and 1050 Fifth Avenue, and the Schwab House on Riverside Drive at 73rd Street.

Handel Architects and Moed de Armas & Shannon Architects did the conversion.
