The handsome, red-brick building at 15 East 69th Street occupies the Madison Avenue blockfront between 69th and 70th Streets along one of the city's most chic stretches.
It was converted into condominium apartments from a hotel in 1999. It used to be the Westbury Hotel and its last operators were Trust House Forte.
The 18-story building, which was erected in 1927, has 47 condominium apartments.
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.
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.
Located at the crossroads of the Meatpacking District, the West Village and West Chelsea, the Porter House at 366 West 15th Street is a former industrial space that was converted into apartments. It has 22 units and is also known as 66 Ninth Avenue.
What the Porter House lacks in size it makes up for in style and attention to detail: residences, which range from one to four bedrooms, feature tall ceilings, 4-inch-wide Jatoba hardwood flooring, in-residence washers and dryers and large windows. Kitchens are equipped with modern appliances and cabinetry and bathrooms have topnotch fixtures.
The Porter House has a part-time doorman, a roof deck, a fitness center and individual storage. What’s more, it is steps from the many restaurants, retail stores, art galleries and cultural institutions for which West Chelsea, the Meatpacking District and the West Village are known.
The Carlton House is a 16-story, brown-brick, apartment building occupies the entire western blockfront on Madison Avenue between 61st and 62nd Street.
It was designed by Kenneth B. Norton in 1950 and contained 161 units, mostly suites.
The building, whose address is 680 Madison Avenue, has several terraces and some bay windows.
The Landmarks Preservation Commission approved Extell Development Company's rehabilitation and restoration plans for the former Carlton House Hotel at 680 Madison Avenue (between 61st and 62nd Streets) in Manhattan on July 19, 2011.
The unanimous vote cleared the way for Extell and its partner, Angelo Gordon & Company, to proceed with their plans to convert the building’s hotel and residential units to 68 apartments and one townhouse unit.
The architect for the conversion is Beyer Blinder Belle Architects & Planners LLP.
This very handsome, 20-story apartment building at 737 Park Avenue on the northeast corner at 71st 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.
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.
40 Mercer Street was designed by “starchitect” Jean Nouvel.
Located in SoHo, it stretches from Mercer to Broadway along Grand Street and contains apartments that feature high ceilings – ranging between 11 and 12 feet – premium appliances, expansive spaces and well-appointed bathrooms.
40 Mercer Street’s glass exterior and deep blue top distinguish it from nearby buildings. Residents have access to such amenities as a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a garage with valet parking, private storage, a landscaped rooftop and an M40 club whose use is restricted to residents.
It is near restaurants and boutiques in the surrounding neighborhood and is also convenient to public transportation.

Designed by world-renowned starchitect Richard Meier, the 16-story 165 Charles Street overlooks the Hudson River and opened in 2005.
165 Charles Street offers two river-facing apartments per floor that feature large terraces. The 30 apartments and one penthouse were delivered fully finished, with everything from the floor plans to minor details designed by Meier himself. The floors are organized freely about an island kitchen unit. Floor-to-ceiling glass wraps each apartment and all units come with wide-plank Wenge wood floors, double-glazed windows and central air conditioning and heating.
Amenities are impressive and include a top-of-the-line fitness center with a 50-foot infinity-edge pool and a private wine cellar. Its West Village location is within close proximity to the restaurants and shops in the neighborhood.
173 Perry Street was the first of three mid-rise residential condominium buildings facing the Hudson River designed by Richard Meier.
It and 176 Perry Street were completed in 2002 and were developed by Richard Born, Ira Drukier and Charles Blaichman.
The third tower, 165 Charles Street, just to the south of the first two, was completed in 2005 and developed by Izak Senbahar and Simon Elias.
176 Perry Street is wider than 173 Perry Street and the two very similar towers set a new design standard for mid-rise residential buildings in Manhattan.
Mr. Meier was one of the "New York Five" architects who came to prominence in the late 1960s and early 1970's and were influenced by the clean and bright lines of Le Corbusier. (The other four were Michael Grave, Peter Eisenman, the late Charles Gwathmey, and the late John Hedjuk.)
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.
40 Bond Street opened in 2007 and is located in NoHo.
Designed by the renowned architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron, 40 Bond Street has 27 apartments, five townhouses and a penthouse unit – all of which feature premium appliances, modern finishes, 11-foot-high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and wide-planked smoked oak flooring.
Residents of 40 Bond Street, which is famous for its handsome “graffiti gate,” have full access to all of the amenities offered by the Gramercy Park Hotel, including the use of its concierge service, David Barton gyms and spa; they also enjoy priority status when making room and restaurant reservations at the hotel. Amenities at 40 Bond also include valet parking, housekeeping, room service, personal shopping and supervised childcare services.
Near excellent restaurants, bars and shops, 40 Bond Street is also close to public transportation, Greenwich Village, NoLIta and SoHo.
