111 W. 57th St.
The highly anticipated 111 W. 57th St. condo, on Billionaire’s Row, launched sales last week, with prices from $18 million to over $57 million. It ends a rocky few years for the under-construction luxury project, including lawsuits accusing developers JDS and Property Markets Group (PMG) of diluting the stake of an equity partner, and infighting that disrupted a previous sales effort. At a launch event, developers distanced the tower, which has made headlines for its slender silhouette, from the drama.
JDS, PMG and Spruce Capital Partners — along with SHoP Architects and William Sofield’s Studio Sofield — at last presented a model of the 1,428-foot tower rising above landmarked Steinway Hall. There will be 46 full-floor and duplex homes; interiors feature great rooms with 14-foot ceilings, marbled bathrooms and floor-to-ceiling windows. Building amenities include a lap pool with cabanas, a private dining room and a triple-height gym.

Lavish amenities include a 50-foot indoor pool, a fitness center with a teak sauna and changing rooms, a screening room and a circus-themed children’s playroom.

Rebecca Pollak
The quiet Brooklyn neighborhood of Kensington, a narrow swath south of Prospect Park and Green-Wood Cemetery between Ditmas Park and Borough Park, is getting a new arrival in the form of 264 Webster, a 63-unit condo. The brick-and-glass building, developed by Horizon Group and designed by Kutnicki Bernstein Architects, is the largest for-sale residential project to open in the neighborhood in several years. Interiors of the studios, one-, two- and three-bedrooms were handled by Brittany Marom Interior Design, though details on finishes have yet to be released.
When sales launch in October, expect pricing to range from $325,000 to $920,000. An amenities suite will include a part-time attended lobby, a library, a residents’ lounge, a playroom, a gym, a pet spa, parking, storage and a roof deck where residents can both grill and hang out.

Bridgeline
Citi Habitats New Developments
The arrival of new development in the Bronx continues with Bridgeline, a 91-unit rental building from JCAL Development Group. Studio, one- and two-bedroom units will be priced between $1,694 and $3,138 a month. Leasing is expected to launch later this month for the project at 329 E. 132nd St. in Mott Haven, a waterfront enclave with a mix of industrial and residential properties that’s been increasingly eyed for ground-up projects. Unlike other additions to the area, this one won’t include an affordable housing component.
Bridgeline will tout a 24/7 attended lobby, a furnished roof deck with city views, a residents’ lounge, a fitness center, outdoor parking and bike storage. Apartments, designed by Aufgang Architects, feature airy interiors with floor-to-ceiling windows, plus in-unit washers and dryers.

Half of the homes will have views of the city skyline, while the other half will face east with views of the development’s courtyard. All will have in-unit washer/dryers.

555 West End Ave.
Hayes Davidson
This 1908 landmarked private school on the Upper West Side is soon to begin its next life as a luxurious 13-unit condo. Developer and architect Tamarkin Co. finagled the building’s unique interior into spacious apartments with some quirks: There’s a unit called The Library, born from the school’s actual library.
Ceiling heights are so impressive that Tamarkin custom-designed library ladders for the kitchens to enable residents to reach the top cabinets.
The 13 residences range from three to five bedrooms, with no more than two apartments per floor. The sales launch is expected for later this month, with prices starting at $7.9 million. As for amenities, they’re on par with any classic Upper West Side residential building: a 24-hour doorman, a fitness center, a rec room, a stroller valet, private individual storage rooms, and additional cold storage and bike storage.
