The Residences at 400 Fifth Avenue is a striking 60 story mixed-use tower designed by renowned architectural firm Gwathmey Siegel & Associates and developed by Bizzi & Partners in 2010. This distinctive building features 184 residential condominiums occupying the upper floors above a 214 room luxury hotel (originally the Setai Fifth Avenue, now the Langham Place). The tower's most notable architectural features include its illuminated flared crown and unique vertically angled diamond shaped windows that create an almost billowy, textured appearance against limestone piers. Residents access their homes through a private entrance on 36th Street, completely separate from the hotel operations below.
The residences, with interiors designed by Das Concepts Inc., include floor-to-ceiling diamond angled windows that maximize light and views, rich black oak flooring, and custom Poliform kitchens equipped with Mont Blanc stone countertops, Sub-Zero refrigerators, and full Miele appliance suites. The marble bathrooms are particularly luxurious, featuring Zuma deep soaking tubs, separate glass enclosed showers, double vanities, and Grohe fixtures throughout. Units range from one to three bedrooms, with many offering panoramic city views including sightlines to the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and Hudson River.
The building's amenities include a 3,000 square foot state of the art fitness center equipped with Technogym equipment, and an 11th floor residents' lounge featuring outdoor terraces, gas fireplaces, and a full kitchen. The Auriga Spa offers resort style amenities including an Aqua Grotto, Ice Cave, Plunge Pool, and Hamam. Residents can access room service from the Langham hotel and utilize the hotel's concierge services.
Located on the northwest corner of Fifth Avenue and 36th Street, the building sits in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just blocks from the Empire State Building and New York Public Library. This prime location provides easy access to Bryant Park, Fifth Avenue shopping, world class dining, Broadway theaters, and multiple subway lines. The building's illuminated crown has become a recognizable part of the Manhattan skyline, cementing its status as both an (unofficial) architectural landmark and coveted residential address.
