Carter’s Review
"This slender 32-story spire has only 48 apartments, affording most residents a level of privacy quite rare in a high-rise.
The building's façade is quite elegant with curved balconies on the tower that sits on a low-rise base that is set back at the 8th floor to match the setback of the YMCA building to its east."
