A recent visit to Fifteen Hudson Yards shows the 915-foot high tower is nearing its apex and is well on its ways towards its 2018 opening. The 88-story building will be the first completed residential condo in Hudson Yards. The design by Diller Scofidio + Renfro in collaboration with Rockwell Group was conceived to maximize views in all directions and to complement The Shed, an adjoining cultural center and event space. The building is aiming for LEED Gold certification with such features as highly efficient condensing boilers and fan coil heating and cooling.

Recently, a new crop of listings has come online for the building, ranging from a $3.89 million two-bedroom to a $9.255 million penthouse. Like all homes at Fifteen Hudson Yards, the units have high ceilings, elegant entry foyers, and spectacular skyline and Hudson River views. Open kitchens are outfitted with custom oak cabinetry and Miele appliances. The master suites come with generous closet space and an en-suite bath. High-tech features include keyless entry, home automation with lighting and thermostat control, and prewiring for phone, television, and internet.
Listings in the building come to an average of $3,449 per square foot, or nearly twice the Midtown West average of $1,773 per square foot. The double-height, 88th-floor penthouse is the skyscraper's crowning glory, and a virtual reality tour of the four-bedroom, 6+-bath, $32 million condo has debuted here.
Residents will have access to three floors of over 40,000 square feet of unparalleled amenities. The 50th floor has a health and wellness theme with a 75-foot pool, fitness center, group class studio, private spa suite with treatment rooms, and beauty bar. The 51st floor has a more social feel with lounges, private dining suites, a club room, a screening room, wine storage and tasting rooms, and collaborative work space.
Fifteen Hudson Yards is rising above The Vessel, the interactive public landmark designed by Thomas Heatherwick, and among 18 million square feet of residential and commercial space in New York City's largest development since Rockefeller Center. Listings are not yet available for the condos at 35 Hudson Yards, but a $1.5 billion sellout is projected.
