This very slick and dramatic apartment building conjures a high-tech “grater” and that’s meant as a high compliment. It is located at 35 West 15th Street between Fifth Avenue and the Avenue of the Americas. Even if it does not slice and dice, or appear in late-night infomercials it is nicely squeezed into its neighborhood and stands pretty freely in its skyline splendor.
It represents a new generation of New York apartment towers that are not comfortable with the city’s traditional, rigid geometry of right angles, or what the late Mel Kaufman, one of the city’s leading office building developers, liked to call “panels and rails” before he changed his philosophy and built 17 State Street, the great semi-cylindrical, reflective-glass tower facing the harbor.
