Carter's Review

This attractive, 28-story, mid-block building at 350 West 37^th Street was erected in 2010 by Lalezarian Properties and has 206 rental apartments including 41 “affordable” units.

The building is called Townsend and was designed by Avinash Malhotra.

The building is between 8th and 9^th Avenues and is not far from the Hudson Yards development, the Garment Center and Penn Station.

Bottom Line

A handsome, mid-block rental apartment tower with many corner windows and many amenities in the Garment Center not far from Penn Station.

Description

The building has a two-story, rusticated limestone base with a broad, glass-and-metal entrance marquee beneath three 8-story-high, setback bays that are projected forward from the rear tower that has four projected bays whose spacing alternates with the lower bays to give the relatively massive building a rather lively dynamic.

Amenities

The building has a landscaped roof deck, a 24-hour concierge, a doorman, a gym, a bicycle room, a gaming room, a garage, a package room, a cinema room, a live-in superintendent, and a 20-foot-high waterfall in its lobby.  Pets are allowed.
