Once a corporate headquarters, the high-rise renovation maintains the structural skeleton of the original building, adding a new curtain wall of blue-green tinted glass and brushed aluminum to compliment the original white travertine marble corners. The interior of the building is all new to complete the transformation from office to residential use. One-, two-, and three-bedroom units feature floor-to-ceiling windows, with 10- to 13-foot ceilings. Amenities include a fitness center with a park view, private dog run, community room and observation deck. A new circular 5-story parking garage wrapped in glass on the tower’s east side provides an architectural counterpoint to the tower and access to indoor parking for building residents.
