  • STEINWAY HALL, 109-113 West 57T1i Street (Aka 106-116 West 58L" Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 13, 2001, Designation List 331 LP-2100 STEINWAY HALL, 109-113 West 57t1i Street (aka 106-116 West 58l" Street), Manhattan. Built 1924-25; [Whitney] Warren & [Charles D.] Wetmore, architects; Thompson-Starrett Co., builders. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1010, Lot 25. October 16, 2001 , the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of Steinway Hall and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions oflaw. Eight people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the property's owners, Community Board 5, Municipal Art Society, American Institute of Architects' Historic Buildings Committee, and Historic Districts Council. In addition, the Commission received two letters in support of designation, including one from the New York Landmarks Conservancy. Summary The sixteen-story Steinway Hall was constructed in 1924-25 to the design of architects Warren & Wetmore for Steinway & Sons, a piano manufacturing firm that has been a dominant force in its industry since the 1860s. Founded in 1853 in New York by Heinrich E. Steinweg, Sr., the firm grew to worldwide renown and prestige through technical innovations, efficient production, business acumen, and shrewd promotion using artists' endorsements. From 1864 to 1925, Steinway's offices/showroom, and famous Steinway Hall (1866), were located near Union Square. After Carnegie Hall opened in 1891, West 57t1i Street gradually became one of the nation's leading cultural and classical music centers and the piano companies relocated uptown. It was not until 1923, however, that Steinway acquired a 57th Street site.

  • Brick Underground
    This three-bedroom Lower East Side penthouse has a private 1,282-square-foot terrace. Douglas Elliman Once upon a time, you knew you had finally made it in New York City when you could afford to buy a penthouse apartment. But is it still a good investment? Now that new and converted buildings can come with multiple penthouses instead of just one, are they still prestigious? In this week’s Buy Curious, Jessica Milton of Mirador Real Estate and Louis Adler of REAL New York tell you whether sky-high living is right for you. The question: I’ve finally saved up enough money for a down payment on a penthouse apartment. What do I need to know before I buy? The reality: Buying a penthouse will make you feel like a big deal. There is a certain cachet that comes with living in the best unit of the building, Milton says. “The term ‘penthouse’ carries with it an aura of luxury, seclusion, and exclusivity.” Why would you want to buy a penthouse? Penthouses often come with private outdoor spaces—sometimes the only outdoor spaces offered in the entire building. “The high-end condo market usually reserves the roof deck for the penthouse unit,” Adler says. Other pros include great views, the fact that they tend to be quieter (since they’re farther away from street noise), and that penthouses tend to be more unique than other units in a building. They typically have high ceilings, and can be multi-level, and have more luxurious finishes than neighboring apartments.

  • Self-Guided Tour of Lower Manhattan More Than Any
    Free Tours by Foot - Self-Guided Tour of Lower Manhattan More than any other neighborhood in New York City, Lower Manhattan offers a stark contrast between the old and the new. On this tour you'll visit sites that date back to the time of Dutch New Amsterdam, see buildings built when New York was still a British colony and stand on the exact spots where American history was made. After your self- guided tour is over, there's still more to do in the area. The old and the new, the triumphant and the tragic, architectural diversity and human stories - There are so many things to do in Lower Manhattan. You’ll here a lot about the ongoing battle to be the world’s tallest building. So, many of them are located here in Lower Manhattan. The area also has some of the city’s smallest and curviest streets. That’s because Lower Manhattan is where New York the city began, when the Dutch created dirt paths to travel from farm to farm. Later, the British paved these unaligned paths into proper roads and now they are some of the oldest streets in America. Free Tours by Foot - Self Guided Tour of Lower Manhattan 2 Warning: you’ll spend a fair amount of time on this tour looking way up, but don’t worry, there are plenty of stops where you can give your neck a rest and look down and around at eye level!

  • Luxuryletter June 2018.Key
    a 72 Mercer St, PENTHOUSE W SOHO WWW.THELEONARDSTEINBERGTEAM.COM LUXURYLETTER JUNE 2018 SOHO NEW DEVELOPMENT: 54 MACDOUGAL Anxious Sellers - The Ultimate Buyers Market? At the Manhattan luxury market’s 2016 peak it took about 5 months on average to sell. I am ceaselessly amazed at the anxiety felt by so many sellers right now when their properties don’t sell within a few weeks. They are genuinely concerned. When did expensive real estate sell in a matter of weeks? We are in a much slower moving market now and while adjusting pricing expectations to a new reality is important, now there is a downward pressure on pricing that in some instances may be artificially exaggerated by impatience. A recent SOS agent-fueled headline virtually BEGGED for an offer: Research revealed that the asking price was still about 20% above what the owner had paid for the property. You’d think they were losing millions! Is this seller anxiety being driven by agents by a prior market that moved quickly or is there a new expectation that a high end property is supposed to sell super-quickly like perishable vegetables? It’s true some of the best, most eager buyers are those that emerge in the first few weeks of listing a property, yet exercising some patience may be prudent too. Here are 5 reasons why this may be the ULTIMATE buyer’s market: 1) Asking prices are down and negotiability is common. You can price in potential further price drops as insurance, possibly with an upside. 2) Financing is still cheap and available: credit dries up in recessions.

  • What Priorities Mean to Building

It discloses: 1. That bu!lding prospects are not as dark as early, confused reports might indicate. 2. That private as well as public defense building projects are to get preferential ratings for securing materials. 3. That while non-defense building will be left to shift for itself, it is not banned. 4. Defense building projects of many types will swell construction volume. 5. Priority orders on metals for manufacture promise shifts and strains, challeng­ ing architects and manufacturers alike to find and use suitable substitutes and to find new ways to conserve essential materials in all types of building.

  • Quay Tower, a Luxury Condo at Brooklyn Bridge Park, Near Brooklyn Heights, Will Be Dedicated to Two Lounges for Residents
    In a cooling market, shared lounges and pools are taking over what used to be residential pinnacles for the elite. By Stefanos Chen July 27, 2018 Stefano Ukmar for The New York Times Falling real estate prices, like toppled statues of despots, can have a democratizing effect. In the overheated New York apartment market, a case in point: penthouses for the people. Long reserved for the largest, most expensive apartments, the top floors of several new rental and condo buildings are instead being dedicated to shared amenity spaces with a suite of perks for residents — and sometimes even the rabble outside — including so-called sky lounges, exclusive restaurants and rooftop pools at towering heights. Developers, not typically known for their largess, are making a wager: A penthouse perch for all will add value in aggregate, even as it cuts potential earnings from pricey would-be apartment space. And with the high end of the market flagging, it may also be the safest bet, as developers refocus on smaller but still costly apartments designed to move faster than the multimillion-dollar behemoths popularized in the last cycle. The luxurious common spaces might help take the minds of residents off their shrinking apartments. The shared spaces could also mean new revenue streams through membership fees, while a hard-to- move penthouse apartment might lower asking prices elsewhere in the building. It is a design trend seldom seen since the 1980s, when health clubs and plastic lounge chairs found a place on the penthouse roost. As then, the market is saturated, but today’s developers are hoping their high-level offerings will age more gracefully.
