From Lobby to Living Room: NYC Luxury Buildings With Next-Level Elevator Access

Is privacy the ultimate luxury?

For New York City’s most discerning homebuyers, the answer is often yes—especially now, when sharing a crowded elevator with strangers may be even less appealing than before.

The latest crop of new Manhattan residential developments, however, offers unique variations on private elevator entry, allowing buyers to ascend directly to their front door, foyer or living room, oftentimes without crossing paths with anyone else along the way.

212 West 93rd Street

Offering a boutique experience that embraces indoor/outdoor living, 212 West 93rd Street brings just 20 condominium residences—most featuring a generous private terrace—encased in a striking contemporary façade to Manhattan’s Upper West Side. ODA, the award-winning architecture firm known for its mold-breaking, human-centric design, conceived the 14-story building as a vertical collection of 20 individual homes. These residences range from one- to four-bedrooms, including full-floor penthouses, with gracious layouts that express the building’s architecture. As a result, 35% of the building’s homes feature elevators where residents step directly into their living rooms or private foyers, while a handful of residences comprise an entire floor.

67 Vestry

67 Vestry, the last historic loft conversion on the Tribeca waterfront, is a luxurious boutique building with quite an interesting art world backstory. Originally built in 1896 as the warehouse for The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, 67 Vestry was converted in the 1970s into artist's lofts used by some of the most iconic artists of the 20th Century. The Romanesque revival landmark is now being restored and converted into 13 loft homes. All of the spacious loft homes at 67 Vestry are either full or half floors and have direct elevator entry, providing privacy and space. Gachot designed all of the homes and public spaces at 67 Vestry.

532 West 20th Street

Designed and developed by Joe McMillan’s DDG, 532 West 20th Street is an intimate collection of only nine full-floor condominium residences in West Chelsea. From the private parking garage, residents have secure, direct elevator entry into their homes, each of which features a private south-facing terrace, a 50-foot-wide great room, a gas fireplace and 10-foot ceilings. The homes emphasize privacy and sanctuary in one of Manhattan's most culturally rich and architecturally significant neighborhoods.

555 West End Avenue

Nestled in the heart of Manhattan's Upper West Side neighborhood, 555 West End Avenue offers 13 breathtaking, one-of-a-kind residences with unmatched architectural magnificence from the building's origin as a historic Beaux Arts private school. Each home at 555 West End Avenue has a unique layout, including sprawling flats, townhomes with private entrances on West End Avenue, and specialized residences born from quintessential spaces found in a historic private school, such as the penthouse gymnasium and former library. All homes are incredibly spacious, with 12.5- to 20-foot ceilings, original towering windows offering abundant natural light, private elevator landings, gracious entry foyers and voluminous eat-in, chef's kitchens.

Located at 77 Greenwich Street in the heart of Manhattan’s Financial District, the elegant tower soars above New York Harbor and Battery Park, and is home to a suite of well-crafted amenities, retail space and a new public elementary school.

“As Lower Manhattan has transformed into New York City's most dynamic neighborhood and place to live and work, we always knew that Jolie’s location at the center of it all, in addition to its standout design and collection of thoughtful amenities, would appeal to professionals and families alike,” said Matthew Messinger, President and CEO of Trinity Place Holdings. “As we open Jolie to its first residents, we're so thrilled this has proven true, and that this beautiful building is contributing to the mix in the most exciting location in Manhattan.”

Designed by FXCollaborative, the celebrated architectural firm behind acclaimed New York City residential developments including The Greenwich Lane and Circa Central Park, as well as the new Statue of Liberty Museum, Jolie is a sculptural tower of reflective glass rising from a cast stone base. Topping out at 500 feet, the 42-story building features a pleated glass curtain wall façade that provides sprawling water views from each of the homes—which begin on the 15th floor located nearly 150 feet above street level—and offers a graceful juxtaposition to the heavy masonry of its historic neighbors.

The building’s warm interiors, emphasizing expert craftsmanship and natural materials, are designed by the renowned Deborah Berke Partners—led by Deborah Berke, Dean of the Yale School of Architecture—representing the firm’s unique vision for Lower Manhattan.

At the entrance to the grand double height lobby, a granite and blackened steel concierge desk anchors the space, while warm, sculptural oak paneling creates a rich and inviting atmosphere. From here, an elevator ascends to the residential floors, which include natural light-filled corridors and residences ranging from one to four bedrooms that combine natural beauty with the comforts of an exceptionally appointed home. With white oak flooring throughout and ceiling heights in excess of 10 feet, the residences boast floor-to-ceiling windows that provide unobstructed water and skyline views from the expanse of pleated crystalline glass.

Credit: Tim Williams Photography

Filled with natural light, each of the custom Deborah Berke Partners-designed Poliform kitchens features state-of-the-art appliances from Miele, Sub-Zero and Wolf, along with honed Blue de Savoie marble countertops and backsplashes. The master bathrooms offer a calming combination of honed warm grey Haisa marble floors, walls and counters, accented with quarter sawn sycamore millwork, and radiant heated floors. Secondary bathrooms are outfitted with honed Venice terrazzo tile floors and quarter sawn oak millwork cabinets, while the powder rooms found in every home include custom-carved and polished Calacatta Lincoln sink bowls and backsplash panels enhanced by sandblasted and brushed Bianco Mist quartzite floors. Designed to exacting LEED standards, the homes at Jolie are both environmentally sustainable and luxurious.

A suite of amenities, expected to be completed in the coming months, designed by Deborah Berke Partners emphasizes entertaining, wellness and play. Headlined by a penthouse-level club known as Cloud Club 77, every resident is afforded a penthouse view via spaces including an art-filled lounge with a fireplace, a private dining room with catering kitchen, a children’s playroom, and a double-height fitness center programmed by The Wright Fit. There is also a multi-purpose game room and training studio with terrace access..

Jolie is in close proximity to Battery Park and Battery Park City, the Hudson River Waterfront, One World Trade Center, major transit hubs and all of the exciting retail, culinary and vibrant nightlife options available in Lower Manhattan, including Brookfield Place and the shops at Westfield. Just across the street from the building is the new Elizabeth H. Berger Park, a 20,000-square-foot park located at the convergence of Greenwich Street, Trinity Place and Edgar Street. The dynamic urban atmosphere is complete with waterfront parks, which offer biking and jogging paths, along with cobblestone streets and a rich architectural history.

The Must-Have Amenity in New York City is Art

There's always been a connection between art and real estate, particularly when it comes to luxury residential developments. As developers increasingly incorporate fine art into high-end residential buildings, gallery-worthy art collections have become the must-have amenity for lobbies and other shared spaces at developments across the country - whether the work is a sculpture, painting, or a piece solely commissioned for the project itself. Below are some of our favorite museum like buildings in New York CIty,

17 Jane Street is a newly built yet timeless boutique condominium designed by architect Sir David Chipperfield and developed by Edward J. Minskoff. Located in the heart of the historic West Village, this rare ground-up building features Corks (Couple), a monumental 10-foot bronze sculpture by American artist Jeff Koons. While 17 Jane Street is a private residential building, Chipperfield designed the jewel-box lobby to be an illuminated presence on Jane Street, making it the perfect showcase for contemporary art — and a striking visual from the sidewalk and street.

The Smile

The Smile, a one-of-a-kind new rental building from the internationally known Danish architecture firm BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group, features an 24-hour, attended lobby boasting rainbow colors and Harlem-inspired murals - not to mention an expansive work by KAWS, an American graffiti artist and designer. Prominently featured behind the lobby's desk, the 10 silkscreen prints are part of a series of 100 titled No Reply.

Through the partnership, Culture Corps curated the art displayed throughout Waterline Square's lobbies, residential corridors and amenity spaces, bringing a gallery atmosphere to the everyday residential experience. The art was specifically chosen to reflect Waterline Square's world-class architecture, waterfront location and lush green space, and the selection includes pieces by notable American and international artists such as Jean-Michel Othoniel, Kiyoshi Otsuka, David Row, Landon Metz, Miya Ando and many more.

5 Important Green Flags to Look for in a New Home

When looking for a new home, it's important to make sure it ticks all your boxes, leaving you no room for regret when you move in with your family. While these priorities may be different for different people, some cut across a large group. People selling their homes know this and so they make the necessary effort to get a buyer soon, and the following are five important things you need to look for.

The Bathrooms

The number of bathrooms and their condition, in general, is something you need to be comfortable with before you get a new home. Depending on the size of your family, you need enough bathrooms to comfortably serve everyone in the house. You should also find out if there are mold problems, broken systems that need to be fixed, and whether there's water damage anywhere. With over 21 million households in America using septic systems rather than a public sewer to filter their toilet waste, it's also good to make sure you're comfortable with the water disposal system and this can be costly to change or fix after you buy the house.

The Condition and Type of Appliances

Appliances are another thing that can be expensive to replace, which is why you should make sure that you're comfortable with the ones in the house you want to buy. First find out which appliances will come with the house and which ones will not and for those that come with the house, make sure that they're in good condition. Things like humidifiers, air conditioners, furnaces, washers, and water heaters all need to be in good condition, something you can check for yourself or find out from your home inspector. Selling a house usually motivates the seller to fix any problematic things, so make sure you get one that's had all the necessary fixes made and won't cost you a lot of extra money once you buy.

Heating and Cooling

The heating and cooling systems should be in good condition in the house you buy. This is because people spend an average of almost 90% of their time indoors. A functional HVAC system, therefore, will enable you to keep your family comfortable, especially if you move during extreme weather. Either make sure that you're happy with the type of heating and cooling system or know what it will take to change it should you buy the house.

The Number of Bedrooms

Depending on the size of your family and whether you want to have more children in the future, you should get a house that will comfortably host everyone. Extra bedrooms should be the right size and be functional so everyone is at ease and enjoys being at home. On the other hand, don't get an overly big house if you don't need the extra space.

The Location

Finally, your new home's location is an important thing to consider before you settle in. In 2019, 16% of people who owned a home for the first time were trying to find new houses in urban areas. This may be because of their jobs, businesses, children's schools, and more. Carefully consider the location of your new home, therefore, to make sure that you don't get a hard time commuting and getting your children to the schools you prefer. Unless you will change your lifestyle, don't buy a home that's not in a location that makes things easier for everyone in the family.

Buying a home is a major purchase, which is why you need to take the time to test things and make sure you're comfortable with the state everything is in. People selling homes will often want to put their best foot forward, and so they will generally be willing to make changes you request for as long as they're not extreme.

Tips for Buying Property in a Seller’s Market

In 2020, there was a supply shortage of 2.5 million housing units. With a lower supply and an increased demand for property, we are now in a seller’s market. This often leads to increased prices and stiffer competition for buyers, which can intimidate any potential property owner — whether or not this is your first home purchase.

The heightened competition of a seller’s market can feel even more challenging in an infamously fast-moving real estate market like New York’s. Rather than give up, take the time to prepare yourself so you can put forth the best offer possible. Here are some tips for navigating a seller’s market.

1.  Prepare Your Paperwork

Step one, of course, is getting all your ducks in a row. When things are moving fast, it’s essential to have what you need to act decisively when you find a listing you like.

Before investigating available homes, ensure you have all the necessary documents in place. One of the first things you want to do is get a preapproval letter from a mortgage company. The document states the mortgage amount you’re pre-approved to borrow.

Know the difference between the types of loans available. The limits on these loans depend on housing prices. Having this information ready shows the seller you can afford the house. Also, being prepared helps you stand out from other buyers and allows for a quicker process especially in the midst of a housing shortage.

2. Set a Budget

With houses leaving the market fast, you may feel pressured to make a higher offer. However, if you go too high, this could cause you future financial strain. 

Before house hunting, determine your budget and stick to it. This can help prevent you from making quick decisions that aren’t in your best interest.You might accelerate your buying timeline, but you shouldn’t sacrifice on your financial wellbeing for a property.

3.  Work With the Seller

With multiple buyers viewing the property, sellers may feel overwhelmed. To make a good impression, be open when picking a date to tour the home. 

Figure out what time is best for the seller. For your benefit, see if you can tour the property around 8 am or right after regular work hours. This can give you a better idea of what the traffic will look like during your typical commute — and it’s more likely the seller is available at those times, too.

Also, be more flexible about your move-in date. Give the seller plenty of time to move out of their house. If you can afford to be adaptable, the process can be a win-win for both parties.

4. Make House Hunting Your Full-Time Job

With homes leaving the market quickly, your search should be a top priority. Regularly search for houses online and around your desired location. Check local listing sites, such as Zillow. You could also look for unlisted homes. To find these, send emails or letters to homeowners asking if they’re interested in selling.

Of course, your real estate agent is in your corner, too. Their insider knowledge of up-and-coming listings will give you a market edge that’s simply hard to achieve if you’re not in the industry yourself.

Also, when setting up a tour, book the earliest time available. Getting in early can give you more time to make a decision. As soon as you find your dream home, work with your real estate agent to follow up with the seller.

5.  Make Fewer Requests

When buying a home, you most likely have a list of features you want to include. However, with a more competitive market, you may need to be more flexible. So, consider holding off on asking for an updated washer or a lower price. Instead, accept what the seller is offering upfront.

You can always revamp the cosmetics of your property later. Make an essentials list — location, schools, price, etc. — and try to cut out anything you can afford to adapt later. While it’s great to find a dream home, buyers sometimes get caught up on small details that can slow them down.

6.  Reach Out to a Listing Agent

A listing agent represents the seller and is the one who lists the property for sale. So, reach out to them to learn more about the home. A listing agent can tell you how many other buyers are interested. Knowing this information can help you make a more competitive offer/

7.  Start With Your Best Offer First

Since a seller sees multiple offers, it’s essential to make a good impression right away. If you wait to give a better offer, the house could leave the market before you even get a chance to make it.

So, ask your real estate agent to do a comparative market analysis. Use this information to help you determine the fair market value for your home. Also, keep in mind your budget. You want to have enough money saved for closing costs.

8.  Offer More Cash

To make your offer stand out further, increase the amount of cash for your earnest money deposit. An earnest money deposit is cash a buyer provides that is held until the sale closes. It is usually between 1-10% of the sale price. The funds are applied toward the buyer’s down payment and closing costs. 

Having a higher offer can show the seller you are invested in the property. It’s also more likely to be a necessary component of a competitive offer. In Upstate New York, where city buyers are snatching up available real estate, brokers report about half of their deals being completed as cash-only offers.

9.  It’s About More Than Just the Money

Price is one of the more critical factors for sellers, but it’s not the only one. Consider sweetening the deal with a non-financial offering. Consider waiving the home inspection or extending their move-out date.

Offering more than just money can be incredibly useful if you’re on a budget. It can also make your offer stand out, even if it’s not the highest price.

10. Write a Personal Offer Letter

Your offer letter should appeal to the seller’s emotions. Talk about how you envision living in the house. You can even bring in elements of the home. For example, discuss how you will maintain some of the original architecture. 

Also, learn more about the homeowners to find a common connection. You could even shoot a short video showcasing how much the property means to you.

Moving Fast in a Seller’s Market

Navigating a seller’s market can be a little stressful. With low supply, buyers are experiencing more competition and even bidding wars. The tips above can help you get prepared, be more decisive and utilize all your resources to make the home search a success.
