In the face of the Covid-19 global health crisis, New York’s real estate market experienced a slowdown. However, this did not deter the rise of magnificent luxury towers, with one standout being 111 West 57—the crown jewel and tallest residential building in the Western Hemisphere. With its unprecedented width/height ratio of 1:24, this architectural marvel stands as the world’s slimmest skyscraper. Adding to its allure are two new loggias, valued at a staggering $105.5 million.

Despite the challenging circumstances, the listing agents remained undeterred, and 111 West 57 witnessed several successful transactions. In June alone, two ultra-luxury apartments, each valued at $30 million, were sold. Notably, Residence 70 captivated international buyers, who virtually toured the apartment through an immersive reality app and signed the contract within a remarkable 30 days.

Among the remarkable offerings of this extraordinary tower is the Triple Park Loggia Penthouse 72, the epitome of opulence with an astounding value of $66 million. Spanning 662 square meters, this three-story penthouse, meticulously designed by Studio Sofield, boasts four bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, and a state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line Gnticnau appliances, from convection ovens to coffee makers. The master bedroom, occupying the entire third floor, creates an oasis of privacy with two dressing rooms, a walk-in closet, and two lavish bathrooms. The panoramic view of the park below adds an invaluable touch to this already priceless abode.

The grand lobby welcomes residents with gray oak floors, while the master bathroom exudes elegance with its bronze accents. The kitchen showcases a seamless blend of plaster and oak cabinets, epitomizing sophistication.

Tower Residence 50, a $39.5 million penthouse, follows a similar layout with an expansive area of 418 square meters. This apartment boasts even more outdoor space, featuring a loggia spanning 186 square meters—an ideal choice for those who cherish a sense of freedom.

Irrespective of their location within the tower, residents can revel in the exceptional amenities offered by 111 West 57. From a 25-meter lap pool to outdoor communal spaces and dedicated concierge staff, every aspect of this residential masterpiece has been meticulously designed to cater to the highest standards of luxury.
