53 W 53rd St

Completed in 2018, this 82-story Manhattan tower is a high-rise collection of studio through four-bedroom residences set directly above a major cultural institution. The exterior is defined by an expressive diagrid structure and sculptural silhouette conceived by a Pritzker Prize–winning architect, giving the tower an immediately recognizable profile on the Midtown skyline. Interiors are consistently customized by a noted designer, with lofty ceiling heights, floor-to-ceiling windows, museum-quality finishes such as statuary marble and honed limestone, and integrated appliance suites from premium brands. Residence plans range from efficient studios to expansive full-floor and multi-bedroom homes with formal entry galleries, large great rooms, eat-in kitchens, walk-in closets, and multiple baths that often feature heated floors and soaking tubs. Building amenities occupy tens of thousands of square feet and include an indoor lap pool, wellness and fitness facilities, squash court, private dining and entertaining rooms, wine-tasting spaces, resident lounges, on-site partner restaurant offerings, and concierge and five-star hotel–level services. Select residences offer private elevator access, generous terraces or private outdoor spaces, dedicated storage units, in-home humidified and filtered fresh air systems, motorized window treatments, and full laundry facilities. Parking and specific pet policies vary; the location places residents steps from Fifth Avenue, major museums, Central Park, and Midtown dining and retail, supporting an urbane, culture-forward lifestyle.
