Last month, we announced that construction of GID Development Group’s three-building master plan along the Upper West Side waterfront is on the rise. Named Waterline Square, the ambitious-in-design megaproject enlists three high-profile architecture firms for each of the buildings: Rafael Viñoly Architects, Richard Meier & Partners and Kohn Pedersen Fox. Now the development team has unveiled the trio of designers that will shape the interiors: Champalimaud, Yabu Pushelberg and Groves & Co. In addition to rentals, there will be 263 condominiums located among all three towers, ranging from 1-5 bedrooms that start on the 20th floor and above.

One Waterline Square is being designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Richard Meier and will rise 36 stories tall from the superblock’s southwest corner at West 59th. International-designer Champalimaud is in charge of the 288-unit building’s interiors, 56 of which will be condominiums. Per the press release, “Champalimaud sought to marry the precision of Meier’s exterior with great warmth.” The two finish palettes: white and a natural toned selection, celebrate the individual character of each home and showcase high ceilings, enormous windows, and a rich selection of handpicked materials from around the world. The studio’s other local works include the condominiums at The Kent, the Chamberlain and 12 East 88th Street.

Two Waterline Square is being designed the internationally-prolific firm of Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF). The cascading two-towered building will be the master plan’s largest and hold 696 residential units - including 160 condos - along its 38 floors. Acclaimed boutique hotel and hospitality duo, Yabu Pushelberg are refining the buildings’ spaces. Two modern finish palettes are offered for the homes, either light or dark, with each enhancing the refined sense within the light-filled residences. Yabu Pushelberg is best known in the city for their cozy and comforting interiors at One57’s Park Hyatt New York.
