Broker & Resident Comments

This Hell's Kitchen high-rise offers "spectacular" Hudson River and city views from "spacious" apartments with "huge windows", complemented by an "impressive" amenity package including pool, tennis courts, and basketball court. While the "far west" location requires a "trek to transit", a "convenient shuttle service" helps bridge the gap. The "marble lobby" and "friendly doormen" ("Spiro is the man!") add luxury touches, though some note "dated fixtures" in units. The "riverside location" provides easy access to waterfront parks, making it an "oasis" despite being "isolated" from Midtown's bustle.
