A recently-listed residence at One57 offers its buyer the unique opportunity to live under one of the skyscraper’s distinctive arched-glass walls. Unit 40EF comprises a two-bedroom and a 1.5-bedroom to form a grandiose 4-bedroom/ 4.5-bathroom home. Priced at $13.9 million ($3,742 per ft²), it is nearly half the price of the building's 'usual' average price per square foot ($6,120 per ft²). Granted, the unit does provide slightly obstructed views of Central Park, thanks to the iconic Essex House and Hampshire House out in front, but the home remains one of the building’s most exceptional residences due to the fact all four of its bedrooms feature solarium-like glass walls and a corner great room, distinguished by an angled exposure facing the park.

The 1,005-foot-tall supertower was finished in 2014 and provides nearly all of its apartments with front-and-center views of Central Park. Designed by Pritzker-Prize-winner, Christian de Portzamparc, its cumulative massing and curving setbacks are meant to evoke a waterfall —though the concept doesn’t fully translate due to the somewhat clunky massing. Nevertheless, its residences and vistas are spectacular. And as 2015’s foremost skyscraper, One57 holds the record for most expensive apartment ever sold in New York City.
Like all of One57’s units, interiors are crafted by Danish-designer Thomas Juul-Hansen. The home offers 10'8" ceilings, solid rift sawn oak ebony floors, and a state-of-the-art, multi-zone climate control system for each room. The cascading floor-to-ceiling window walls are provided with a uniquely-curved shading system. The great room measures nearly 37 by 19 feet and adjoins the open and finely-equipped Chef’s kitchen. The master bedroom offers south and east city-exposures, a grand walk-in closet and an en-suite bath anchored by an extra deep Jacuzzi soaking tub.
