“High above the Museum of Modern Art, mere blocks from Central Park and Fifth Avenue, in the epicenter of New York’s global business, arts, theater and cultural districts, a modern, elegantly tapering tower is rising.” – Streeteasy 53 West 53rd Street was designed by Pritzker Prize-Winning architect Jean Nouvel. Behind its unique façade are perfectly detailed residences designed by renowned interior designer Thierry Despont, each large and light-filled, unlike any other apartment.
