ODA reveals model residence imagery for Era condo

November 23, 2021 - Construction Design & Engineering

Manhattan, NY Era, the ODA-designed condo building with a cantilever structure located on the Upper West Side, has released its model residence images.

Era is a 20-story condominium building being developed by Adam America Real Estate and Northlink Capital at 251 West 91st St. Era’s cantilever design is progressive with a purpose: Growing as it ascends to allow for more open views, expansive common spaces, and generously sized residences, most with at least two exposures. The extended roof allows for an outdoor pool and ample outdoor space. The building façade in limestone is comprised of off-set geometries layered in three-floor increments, giving a triple-height frame, and allowing oversized windows for residents–with most units having corner orientation. Era’s 57 residences consist of two- to five-bedroom homes, with select homes offering private outdoor terraces. The remaining residences range in size from 1,252 to 3,444 s/f.

Era’s residences offer defined, independent spaces separated formally by corridors and foyers. The homes feature nine-foot six-inch ceilings, white oak flooring, custom doors and moldings, Bosch washer and dryers, and multi-zone HVAC systems.

The penthouses feature crema delicato marble cladded fireplaces.

Era’s kitchens are all about the details and feature honed crema delicato marble countertops with matching range hood and custom Italian cabinetry by Aster Cucine. A statement island wrapped in waterfall marble counters and striking singette papyrus mosaic marble backsplashes is the focal point for many of the kitchens. Undermount quartz sinks sprout Waterworks polished nickel fixtures and Gaggenau appliances offset bespoke glass encased walnut display cabinets. Select residences feature Gaggenau wine coolers and polished nickel pot fillers.

The primary bathrooms include honed Calacatta Gold and thassos mosaic flooring, Calacatta Gold marble slab walls and countertops, and custom white lacquer oak vanities. Oversized showers are finished with polished nickel rain showerheads and infinity drains. Spaces focus around undermount tubs with cove-lit Calacatta Gold marble ledge or Waterworks oval freestanding tubs. Every detail is accounted for: Duravit floor mounted toilets, Waterworks polished nickel fixtures, and even radiant floor heating.

Emanating the upscale and intimate feel of a private club, the building’s generous amenities include a rare rooftop pool with recreational and lounge areas; 24-hour concierge with a grand double-height lobby and a stone clad curved staircase; fitness center and yoga studio; lounge; children’s playroom; youth room for gaming; music room; bike room; live-in superintendent; and pet grooming station. Private storage units are available for purchase.
