Overview of Place 57 at 207 East 57th Street

Place 57 is a striking 36 story reflective glass tower at 207 East 57th Street, completed in 2006 and designed by acclaimed architect Ismael Leyva. Developed by The Clarett Group in partnership with renowned French crystal maker Baccarat, the building features a distinctive angled façade and dramatic cantilever at its northwest corner. The tower contains just 68 luxury residences with a maximum of two apartments per floor, ensuring exceptional privacy and exclusivity. Interior designer Vicente Wolf created the building's sophisticated lobby adorned with Baccarat crystal lighting and fixtures, along with an outdoor garden featuring crystal chandeliers.

The building's apartments, ranging from two to four bedrooms, showcase premium finishes throughout including Brazilian walnut or mahogany flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows, and sweeping city and Central Park views. Kitchens feature Viking appliances with custom cabinetry and stone countertops, while bathrooms are outfitted with Waterworks fixtures, whirlpool soaking tubs, and separate glass enclosed showers. Most units include spacious galleries, abundant walk in and reach in closets, in-unit washers and dryers, and individual safes. Notable residences include duplex units and the penthouse, which was once occupied by Oprah Winfrey and features three bedrooms with a large private terrace.

Place 57 offers white glove service with 24 hour doorman and concierge services, along with amenities including a state of the art fitness center, residents' lounge, children's playroom, private storage units, and a landscaped rooftop terrace. The prime Midtown East location provides exceptional convenience, with Whole Foods directly across the street, Bloomingdale's two blocks away, and easy access to Central Park, Fifth Avenue shopping, and multiple subway lines. The building welcomes pets and maintains its reputation as one of the most attractive reflective glass residential towers in midtown Manhattan.
