A sales office opened last week at 156 Fifth Avenue, Suite 1100, for the 18-story condominium apartment building at 4 West 21st Street that is being developed by Alexander Brodsky and J. Dean Amro of The Brodsky Organization.

The 56-unit building has been designed by Hugh Hardy of H3 Hugh Hardy Collaboration Architecture LLC. The building will have an interesting main fa?ade of flush and indented windows that make alternating two-story-story-high window rectangles. This fenestration pattern overlaps a three-story-high fa?ade grid creating a rich rhythm and visual modulation.

Apartments will range in size from 1,073 to 1,674 square feet and include 5 one-bedroom units, 37 two-bedroom units, 4 two-bedroom units with terraces, five three-bedroom units and two penthouses. Prices range from about $1,300,000 to about $3,000,000.

Apartment layouts feature flexibility through the use of sliding pocket doors.

The building will have a garage with space for more than 100 cars.

The building was recently topped out and occupancy is scheduled for next June.

According to James Lansill, senior managing director of the Sunshine Group LTD, about 40 percent of the units have already been sold.

Mr. Brodsky and Mr. Amro are grandsons of Nathan Brodsky, the founder of the Brodsky Organization, which was the developer of the BridgeTower Place condominium building near the Manhattan entrance to the Queensboro Bridge and has developed several major high-rise rental towers south of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.
