20 W 53rd St

A 50-story luxury condominium-hotel completed in 2014, this limited collection contains roughly 60 residences across one- to four-bedroom layouts, including full-floor and duplex penthouse homes. Architectural design by a major international firm yields a sculpted tower with floor-to-ceiling glazing that frames multiple city and Central Park sightlines from varied exposures. Interiors are consistently high-end: wide-plank white oak floors with a dark ebony stain, custom millwork, generous ceiling heights (around 10–11 feet), SieMatic kitchens with ebonized walnut and stone countertops, and spa-grade marble bathrooms with radiant heated floors and freestanding tubs. Many homes include private terraces, substantial outdoor space, and thoughtfully planned circulation with formal entry foyers and walk-in closets. Shared facilities operate at a hotel caliber: a full-service 24-hour concierge and multilingual staff, valet/doorman services, a large wellness and aqua center with pool and private cabanas, La Mer spa, fitness center, and multiple dining outlets. Additional resident conveniences include in-building laundry/housekeeping options, private storage, private meeting rooms, and dedicated building security. Vehicular access is supported by valet parking; pet policies are building-determined. Situated on a prime Midtown Fifth Avenue address opposite a major museum, the property places residents within walking distance of high-end retail, cultural institutions, and major subway lines, delivering an urban lifestyle that blends trophy-asset privacy with full hotel services.
