Manhattan, NY The Naftali Group has topped out 221 West 77^th St., a Thomas Juul-Hansen-designed 26-unit condominium, located between Amsterdam and Broadway on the Upper West Side. 221 West 77-^th St. is Naftali’s second boutique condominium on the block; the first, 210 West 77^th St., topped out in October 2015 and is 92% sold. The two buildings have completely transformed the street.

“We are very excited to be able to develop these two brand new stunning residential buildings in the prime center of the Upper West Side. It is such a unique opportunity as most of the Upper West Side is historic which prevents the construction of brand new buildings,” said Miki Naftali, founder and CEO of the Naftali Group. “These two stunning residential buildings and the installation of new sidewalks, trees and tree guards will complete our efforts to transform this block.”

In May, Naftali entered into multiple contracts on five residences at 221 W. 77^th. Townhouse East, a four-bedroom four and a half bathroom duplex, and Townhouse West, a five-bedroom five and a half bathroom duplex, each with expansive backyards, are now in contract. Contracts signed on 10E and 11E, both three bedroom three and a half bathroom apartments, as well as a full-floor five bedroom, four and a half bathroom residence on the 15^th floor, complete the recent sales activity.
