Adellco LLC has begun excavation work for a residential condominium tower of about 32 stories at 101 West 28th Street on the northwest corner of the Avenue of the Americas.

The project is named Remy and has been designed by Costas Kondylis.

The site, which extends about half way to 29th Street, was vacant.

The design calls for a very slender, glass-clad tower that almost seems to shimmy-and-shake vertically. The building has a five-story base and a setback tower that alternates rectilinear and curved corners with setbacks and cantilevered sections.

It promises to be the most attractive new building in the former Flower District along the avenue that has been sprouting with new towers since a rezoning a few years ago.

Adellco developed the 37-story Capitol at 55 West 26th Street in 2001 and the 36-story Ashton at 800 Sixth Avenue in 2004.

The building will have one- and two-bedroom apartments, some full-floor apartments, a duplex unit and a penthouse with terraces.

Ceiling heights in the apartments will range from 9 to 13 feet.

The location is convenient not only to Chelsea and the Flatiron districts but also to midtown.
