the-westly-architecture

New York City is known for its luxury real estate offerings and The Westly, a new development from Adam America Real Estate and Northlink Capital, is no exception. This residential property is one of the most anticipated additions to the city’s luxury real estate market, boasting unparalleled amenities and a prime location.

The Westly’s 52 residences range from two- to five-bedroom units, with an impressive penthouse that spans roughly 3,500 square feet with more than 1,000 square feet of private outdoor space. The 250-foot-tall building stuns with a unique chevron-patterned limestone facade designed by ODA Architecture and contracted by Urban Atelier Group.

Let’s dive into what makes The Westly so special, and why it’s a must-see for anyone on the hunt for a luxury home in New York City.

Location—The Westly Is An Upper West Side Gem

The Westly is located at 251 West 91st Street on the Upper West Side, a neighborhood renowned for its iconic museums, lively nightlife, and sprawling green space. The Westly’s prime location means that residents will have easy access to everything this area has to offer, as well as the rest of Manhattan. The building is a short walk from the 96th Street subway station where you can pick up the 1, 2, or 3 train.

Sandwiched between Riverside Park and Central Park, living at The Westly means being a stone’s throw away from either calming green oasis in an otherwise bustling city. Need to run a few errands? The building has a perfect walk score of 100 with grocery stores, transit, schools, and other community staples surrounding the building. Take in a show at Lincoln Center, do some shopping around Columbus Circle, or cap off your week with a meal at one of the area’s legendary restaurants.

Amenities

The Westly boasts a wealth of amenities that are designed to elevate your lifestyle with a sophisticated ease. You’ll have access to a state-of-the-art fitness center complete with cardio machines, weight training equipment, and a yoga studio. Need to occupy the kids before working out? No problem. There’s a beautiful children’s playroom with a built-in ball pit, storage cubbies, and tons of games and crafts. Plus, a music room with instruments and equipment, and a game room with dual flat-screen TVs perfect for video games.

You can’t talk about amenities without mentioning The Westly’s rooftop terrace. Take in sweeping skyline views from its rooftop pool or relax in one of the adjacent lounge areas. Wherever you choose to spend time is sure to be both stunning and exceedingly comfortable, with plenty of sunshine to boot.

Inside the building, residents will find a 24-hour doorman, concierge services, and a resident lounge. The lounge is perfect for entertaining guests with comfortable seating, a fireplace, and a catering kitchen. The concierge will help each day run smoothly by handling your packages, greeting guests, and offering expert assistance that ensures you get where you need to go.

Architecture

The genius team behind ODA Architecture has done a beautiful job creating a property that both stands out and aligns with the neighborhood around it. While the Upper West Side is known for its classic brownstones, The Westly boasts a modern limestone facade that perfectly complements those houses without eclipsing their distinct beauty. The chevron-patterned stone creates a rich texture against the skyline that seems to draw the eye from every angle on the block.

Eran Chen, Head of ODA Architecture, says the building “grows as it ascends,” meaning its largest areas are the democratically shared common spaces, like the rooftop terrace and pool. Other flourishes are the art deco accents built into the property’s exterior, as well as its signature large-scale windows which provide sweeping, incredible views of the cityscape for every Westly resident.

Design

ODA Architecture’s attention to detail didn’t stop at The Westly’s exterior. Each unit’s interiors are adorned with crema delicato marble, from the fireplace to the kitchen countertops and range hoods. Sink and faucet fixtures are elevated with Waterworks polished nickel. In the kitchen, you’ll find top-of-the-line Gaggenau appliances and a waterfall island that invites conversations with family and guests alike.

Just as much luxury can be found in the property’s bathrooms. Walls and countertops are richly wrapped in Calacatta Gold, and radiant-heated flooring is tiled in a mosaic using marble from the Greek island of Thassos. Vanities have been custom-created in white lacquered oak for the space, with Duravit floor-mounted toilets that blend in perfectly with their surroundings. Your daily bath or shower becomes a moment of celebration in a bathroom as richly textured as this.

How to buy new construction in NYC

Buying a newly constructed New York City home like The Westly can be exciting — you’re the first person to live in the space, and you can really make it your own. But the new construction buying process can be overwhelming if you’re not already familiar with it. Here are some tips to help you navigate buying a new development in New York City.

1. Work with a reputable real estate agent

The first (and most important) step is finding an agent with experience working with new construction properties. A good agent will understand the market, its neighborhood, and the builders, so they can guide you to the right home and help you negotiate the best possible deal. The real estate experts at NewDevRev are here to help. Give us a call at (646) 770-3379 or e-mail us through our website.

2. Do your research

Before you start your search, it’s important to research the different neighborhoods in New York City and the types of new construction properties available. Be sure to consider the building’s location, amenities, and price range to help narrow down your search.

3. Get pre-approved for a mortgage

Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is a crucial step in any home-buying process. It gives you an idea of how much you can afford to spend on a home and shows builders that you’re a serious buyer. In general, coming to see a property with a mortgage pre-approval in hand helps you compete in a fast-paced market like New York City.

4. Attend open houses and showings

Check out the open houses and showings for new construction properties that interest you. This will allow you to see the properties up close, ask questions, and get a sense of the building’s amenities, design, and location.

5. Review the offering plan

When you find a property that you’re interested in, review the offering plan carefully. The offering plan is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions of the sale, including the purchase price, timeline, any bylaws you need to be aware of, and the floor plan of the home.

6. Hire an attorney

It’s important to hire a real estate attorney to review the offering plan and help you navigate the closing process. Your attorney can also advise you on any legal issues that may arise throughout the process.

7. Consider working with a mortgage broker

In addition to working with a real estate agent, consider working with a mortgage broker who can help you find the best rates and terms for your specific needs. A good mortgage broker can help you save time and money and help you avoid common pitfalls in the home-buying process.

8. Negotiate the price

When it comes time to make an offer on a new construction property, be prepared to negotiate the purchase price. Work with your real estate agent to come up with a competitive offer that takes into account the market conditions, the property’s location, and any other factors that may impact the sale price.

9. Set up an inspection

Before closing on the property, some buyers opt to have a professional inspection to identify any potential issues. Though not very common in NYC, inspections can provide extra peace of mind before closing and help avoid costly surprises down the road.

10. Close on the property

After concerns have been discussed, and repairs have been made — it’s finally time to close. At closing, you’ll sign all of the necessary documents (be warned: it’s a lot of paperwork!) and have ownership of the property officially transferred to you.
