The Solaire model unit (Evan Joseph)
When The Solaire was first converted from a rental to a “co-op with condo rules,” word-of-mouth interest from current residents and neighbors accounted for 30 contracts before sales officially launched. More recently, the team announced that the building marked its 100th closing.
Remaining availabilities in the building range from a studio for $730K to a three-bedroom for $4.185 million. All are available for immediate move-in, and all benefit from distinct design, natural materials, in-unit washer/dryers, and energy efficient, multi-zone heating and cooling systems.

In the wake of Local Law 97, the cost of making New York's largest buildings more energy-efficient has the potential to get passed on to tenants in the form of costly capital improvements. However, that is not likely to be the case at The Solaire: Long billed as “America’s first green high-rise,” features include photovoltaic cells, planted green roofs, an on-site water treatment center, rainwater irrigation, filtered water, and MERV-14 filtered and conditioned air. The building is LEED Gold certified and now targeting WELL Building certification.

As part of the conversion, all of the building’s amenities have been reimagined by COOKFOX to provide airy spaces filled with natural light. Residents arrive to an attended lobby, and the building is topped with a landscaped roof terrace offering an outdoor kitchen, dining and lounging areas, and dramatic views of the Hudson River. In between, perks and amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center with two virtual training systems, a children’s playroom, a media room, and a lounge with a catering kitchen, dining room, reading nooks, and views of Teardrop Park. Bike storage is provided, and parking and electric vehicle charging are available for an additional fee.
