A new collection of for-sale residences has officially debuted on the Upper West Side market. Called The Chamberlain at 269 West 87th Street, the building is due for completion in 2018 and is being brought forward by Simon Baron Development and Quadrum Global. The developers obtained the property in a 99-year lease and filed plans last September to build a 170-foot tall condominium spanning 100,194 square feet, designed by FXFOWLE Architects. Renderings reveal a 17-story, detailed tanned brick building with distinctive vertical piers and setbacks.
There are currently seven apartments for sale at the Chamberlain, with 2-bedrooms starting from $2.55 million, 3-bedrooms starting from $3.975 million, and 4-bedrooms starting from $5.2 million. The tower will house 39 units total, including some townhouses with private gardens.
