PROPERTY
The
dramatic 20-story Beekman Regent at 351 E.
51st St. is now home to 64 one- to four-bedroom condos developed
by Dennis A. Herman of Beekman International Center.
The former 1890s Romanesque revival schoolhouse, its original
four-story façade intact, includes 10 loft homes, five
duplex townhouse apartments with enormous terraces, 30 classic
apartments and 18 penthouses, including one with five wood-burning
fireplaces and a 1,500SF terrace. Ceilings range from 9 to 14

windows, Italian mahogany floors and sterling-silver fixtures
in the bathrooms. All have formal dining rooms, and a number
have terraces or balconies.
Kitchens have Italian porcelain floors (grey slate for the lofts),
granite countertops and dark-cherry cabinets; Miele, Sub-Zero
and Thermador appliances round it out. Bathrooms have deep Jacuzzi
soaking tubs and marble vanities (onyx for the lofts). All residents
can enjoy the lounge, with a plasma-screen TV; fitness center,
conference/dining room, business center, and a wine cellar.
Priced from $2.79 to $6.5 million.5. |

Built
in the 1920s as a hotel, the seven-story, 14-unit Broadway
Riverview at 20 Broadway in Williamsburg has recently
been converted to one- and two-bedroom five-star condo lofts,
ranging in size from 950 to 1,300SF. The two duplex penthouses
offer sprawling sunny-all-day rooftop terraces and outstanding
vistas (most of the other homes have gardens or balconies).
There’s immeasurable appeal everywhere—from the
soaring ceilings to kitchens with custom Anigre wood cabinets,
Costa Esmeralda green granite counter tops and Viking appliances.
Bathrooms come with slate walls, limestone floors, glass mosaic
tiles and custom-pear wood vanities topped with Cascais stone
or Montauk black slate. When the sales office opens on Dec.
2, prices will range from the low $500,000s to just over $1
million. Occupancy is set for late winter 2005. |

In
a word—gorgeous! Two three-bedroom, multibath condos
at 213 W. 23rd St. are set in a century-old
landmark building that was formerly the McBurney YMCA. These
two trophy homes, in the space once occupied by the racquetball
court, boast meticulously restored plaster ceilings at an
amazing 17 feet high (windows top out at 13 feet). Wide-plank
Brazilian walnut floors span 3, 500SF of living space. Every
room has audio control. The seriously sleek and prestigious
Binova “techno-logical” state-of-the-art culinary
kitchens serve up details you never thought you needed—plus
those you expect: stainless-steel appliances, and countertops.
Slate-floor bathrooms have huge soaking tubs and teak vanities
(there’s steam and sauna in the master baths). The pièce
de résistance is a complimentary membership to the
David Barton Gym downstairs. Priced at $3.2 million. Expected
completion: January 2005 for occupancy in the spring. |
