CONDOMINIUM · BILLIONAIRES' ROW · BUILT 2014
157 West 57th Street
The tower that opened Billionaires’ Row, and the first Manhattan apartment to close above one hundred million dollars.
WHY THIS BUILDING MATTERS
The tower that opened Billionaires’ Row, and the first Manhattan apartment to close above one hundred million dollars.
Christian de Portzamparc’s sloping blue and silver curtain wall was the first of the 57th Street supertalls, with residences beginning above the Park Hyatt that occupies the lower floors. Michael Dell’s $100.47 million purchase in 2014 was the first nine-figure apartment sale in the city’s history.
Planning the numbers? You can compare owning with renting using ELIKA’s NYC Buy vs. Rent calculator, then model the longer-term ownership numbers with the True Carry Cost calculator.
Hotel integration is the defining feature: housekeeping, room service and concierge are drawn from the Park Hyatt, which is a materially different ownership experience from a conventional condominium and shows up in both the amenity set and the monthly carry.
Ten years on, One57 trades at a discount to the newer towers around it, and resale inventory is comparatively deep. For a buyer prioritising service and location over the newest product, that discount is the point.
