Manhattan, NY The 63-story Midtown tower designed by Foster + Partners, is relaunching as Selene. The fully realized contemporary landmark with sales and marketing led by Brown Harris Stevens Development Marketing consists of 94 residences.
Formerly known by its address 100 East 53rd St. and now being relaunched independently by Vanke US, the project has hit a number of milestones as it returns to the market. With construction now complete, Selene offers immediate occupancy, and a suite of newly furnished model residences.
The building’s luminous tower homes, named the Sky Collection, range from one-bedroom residences to a duplex full-floor penthouse and ceilings up to 11 ft. in height, undulating glass walls, and natural light. With no more than two residences per floor, each tower residence features an open kitchen with wire brushed oak custom cabinetry and a Gaggenau appliance suite. Baths are accessorized with unique details such as Foster + Partners-designed bronze and oak vanities, radiant heated flooring, and freestanding soaking tubs. Select tower homes also offer a private elevator entrance.
Selene’s gallery-style residences, named the Modern Loft Collection, feature architectural concrete walls, diamond-polished high-grade concrete flooring, and ribbed concrete ceilings. In addition, the lofts boast Foster + Partners designed custom millwork, floor-to-ceiling windows, and double entry doors in select residences.
Selene features four floors of wellness and social amenities to expand the boundaries of the residences. Encompassing the fourth floor, the wellness-focused amenity spaces include a 60-ft. sunlit, arbor lined swimming pool, a cardio fitness room, weight room, pilates/ballet room, yoga room, sauna, steam room, spa treatment rooms and his-and-her private changing rooms and showers. On the third floor, Selene boasts amenities curated for residents’ social life including the Atlas Club & Library furnished by AD100 interior designer William Georgis. Georgis also furnished the building’s lobby, which features custom furniture by his design alongside a fireplace and an art installation by American artist Rachel Feinstein. Residents of Selene have direct elevator access to the Michelin-starred Le Jardinier, one of the first New York City restaurants designed by architect and interior designer Joseph Dirand.
