Sales have launched at 200 East 21st Street, the newest project in Alfa Development’s Green Collection. The interwoven glass and stonework façade of the 21-story building designed by BKSK stands out among the surrounding Gramercy buildings while complementing them at the same time. The 67 residences start at $1.445 million for one-bedrooms, $2.925 million for two-bedrooms, and $3.95 million for three-bedrooms. Occupancy is expected for late 2018.

Like all buildings in the Green Collection, 200 East 21st Street is targeting LEED Gold Certification with environmentally friendly features from top (landscaped communal green roof deck) to bottom (vertical green wall in attended lobby that improves air quality). It will offer wind-generated electricity and a solar-powered system that provides 60% of the building’s hot water. A bike room encourages the use of bicycles and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Eco-friendly materials such as FSC-certified wood and water-conserving fixtures were used in the interiors.
Kitchen
However, there were no style sacrifices involved in the interiors by Champalimaud. Grand oak entry doors open to spacious living areas with floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the apartment with natural light. Poliform kitchens have elegant islands and peninsulas, white sand quartzite countertops, and fully integrated Miele appliances; select units have built-in coffee machines, wine fridges, or electric speed ovens. Spa-like master baths feature white Macedonian Sivec marble floors with radiant heat, double vanities with white Macedonian Sivec marble countertops, and glass-enclosed showers. Other features include oak-veneered doors leading to a laundry area with Miele Prestige Washer and Tumble Dryer with heat exchange technology.

Moreover, the aforementioned roof deck, lobby, and bike room are not just sustainable features but part of a suite of luxurious amenities. An extensive wellness center hosts a gym, sauna, and spa treatment room. A residents’ lounge has an adjacent dining space and seating with an entertainment center and fireplace. 200 East 21st Street is located just off Third Avenue near some of Gramercy’s best dining, entertainment, and shopping.
