As Alfa Development’s 200 East 21st Street gears up to meet its goal of late 2018 occupancy, excitement rises along with the 21-story condominium in the heart of Gramercy. Construction topped out last fall, and a recent site visits shows that the interwoven glass and stonework facade is nearly complete. The design by BKSK Architects nods to the neighborhood's historic architecture, but the apartments inside pay tribute to the present in terms of style and future in terms of infrastructure.

Interiors by Alexandra Champalimaud infuse all apartments with open layouts, oak veneer entry and interior doors, and oversized windows with bronze-colored frames overlooking Gramercy. Custom-designed Poliform kitchens are equipped with large islands and peninsulas, quartzite countertops, and full Miele appliance suites. Select units have private outdoor space.

Half a block east of the ultra-exclusive Gramercy Park, residents have private outdoor space all their own through a roof deck with lush plantings by Halsted Welles Associates and expansive north and east views. The residents’ lounge has a fireplace, entertaining kitchen by Poliform, billiards area, and library wall with built-in flat screen TV. A sunlit fitness center is divided into separate cardio, weights, and stretching areas. Additional amenities include a yoga studio with skylight and a wellness center with spa treatment room and sauna.

“Sustainable design is simply smart design” – Alexandra Champalimaud

Though 200 East 21st Street may appear purely indulgent at first blush, it is underpinned by sustainable building practices and such a commitment to the environment that it is targeting LEED Gold Certification. It incorporates LED lighting, wind-generated electricity, and state-of-the-art energy systems and equipment wherever possible. A solar-powered domestic water production system provides 60% of the building’s hot water.

Many of the building's most luxurious features are in fact designed with sustainability in mind. The double-paned, oversized windows let in natural light while reducing electricity use, noise pollution, and heat gain; all homes feature energy-efficient appliances, responsibly sourced finishes, and water-conserving fixtures. A vertical green wall in the lobby curated by Ecowalls improves the building’s air quality, and the green roof provides natural insulation in addition to gorgeous city views.

Sales launched in November 2017, and the remaining listings start at $1.395 million for one-bedrooms, $2.675 million for two-bedrooms, and $3.975 million for three-bedrooms. An average price of $2,021 per square foot puts them well above the Gramercy Park average of $1,763 per square foot (CityRealty data).
