Developed by Aby Rosen and designed by the renowned Sir Norman Foster, the striking luxury tower known as Selene, formerly 100 East 53rd Street, gracefully rises in Midtown Manhattan. This 59-story skyscraper, completed in 2019, is located at the intersection of Lexington Avenue and 53rd Street, showcasing its slender and elegant form against the cityscape. The building houses 94 luxury condominiums, offering a range of living spaces from alcove lofts to expansive four-bedroom residences.
The interiors are a testament to modern design, seamlessly integrating functionality with aesthetic appeal. The kitchens are a highlight, featuring custom millwork designed by Foster + Partners and equipped with high-end Gaggenau appliances. Details such as aged oak cabinetry with integrated shelving, ventilation, and lighting systems, alongside backsplashes in Carrara marble or stainless steel, exemplify the thoughtful design that characterizes the entire building.
Residents of Selene enjoy access to a suite of premium amenities. These include a wellness center, a luminous 60-foot swimming pool, sauna and steam rooms, dedicated spaces for yoga and Pilates, a library, and various lounges. The presence of a world-class culinary market and a five-star restaurant within the building elevates the living experience to new heights.
Positioned off Park Avenue, Selene is at the heart of Midtown's Cultural District, offering unparalleled access to dining, art, luxury shopping along the famed Fifth Avenue, Central Park, iconic architectural landmarks, and vibrant performance venues. This location embodies the dynamic and diverse spirit of New York City, making it an ideal residence for those seeking luxury amidst the city's bustling energy.
