VU New York is a 35 story condominium tower located at 368 Third Avenue between East 26th and 27th streets, strategically positioned at the intersection of four dynamic Manhattan neighborhoods: NoMad, Flatiron, Gramercy, and Kips Bay. Designed by SLCE Architects, the building showcases New Age Modernism with an oyster white façade accented by warm bronze detailing, featuring clean lines, bronze embellishments, and sculpted chevron details. The tower's design emphasizes maximizing natural light through oversized windows that put the city on full display, creating dramatic views of iconic landmarks including the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, One World Trade Center, and the East River.
The building contains 100 residences ranging from studios to three bedrooms, including duplex penthouses on the top floors. Interior design by renowned designer Paris Forino creates sophisticated living spaces with soaring 11 foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows throughout. Common features across units include kitchens appointed with marble, bleached oak, and white lacquer finishes paired with Miele appliances, while bathrooms feature soft white marble walls with intricate mosaic floor patterns and custom fixtures from The Grace Collection, Paris Forino's exclusive line for Waterworks. All residences include wide plank white oak flooring and in-unit washer/dryer combinations.
Residents enjoy a full floor of wellness and entertainment amenities designed by Paris Forino, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, yoga studio, screening room, children's playroom, residential lounge, and party room. The building features an attended lobby with European white oak paneling and honed Palladium travertine floors, along with 24 hour doorman and concierge services. The crown jewel is the 35th floor rooftop terrace with lush greenery, plush furniture, and panoramic city views, providing an elevated outdoor retreat high above the Manhattan skyline.
Notable offerings include Penthouse 34A, a duplex stunner with nearly 3,000 interior square feet and a 358 square foot private terrace, listed at $9,385,000. The penthouse features a dramatic living and dining space that opens directly onto the terrace, with the primary suite offering 30 feet of windows and southeast exposures toward the Freedom Tower and East River. The building's location provides convenient access to seven subway lines, the East River Greenway, and proximity to the Midtown Tunnel for easy airport access, while being surrounded by Madison Square Park, Silicon Alley, and some of the city's best restaurants and shopping.
