The Rockwell (Toll Brothers City Living)
In recent times, the Upper West Side building boom has been making its way further north. Architecturally adventurous, amenity-rich new condos like The Westly, 2505 Broadway, Dahlia, 212 West 93rd Street, and 96+Broadway have slowly remade a section of the West 90s along Broadway. A bit further north, at the point where the boundaries between the Upper West Side and Morningside Heights start to blur, sales have just launched at The Rockwell, a new condo located at 2688 Broadway.
Current availabilities start at $1.175 million for one-bedrooms, $2.04 million for two-bedrooms, and $3.35 million for three-bedrooms. At an average price of $1,962 per square foot, it is roughly in line with the local average condo price of $1,883 per square foot (per CityRealty data). Occupancy is projected for spring 2024.

Developer Toll Brothers purchased the site for $44 million in August 2019, shortly after the previous owner got in trouble for illegally running the prewar residential building as a budget hotel. Permits for a new building were filed in spring 2020 and listed Hill West Architects as the designer of record.
