FRANK GEHRY'S ACCLAIMED NYC SKYSCRAPER DEBUTS UPPER-FLOOR LUXURY RENTAL UNITS ...

Call it the “ripple effect”—the real estate world continues to buzz as the spectacular upper floor residences of  New York by Gehry are released to an eager market and renters continue to throng the rental gallery to seek a home created by the architect, Frank Gehry.  Praised by architecture critics and beloved by photographers worldwide, the 76-story  New York by Gehry —with its stainless steel cladding draped like fabric—is an inspired addition to the Manhattan skyline, a shining symbol of Lower Manhattan’s resurgence as a vibrant residential, commercial and cultural neighborhood.

Following the exceptionally successful springtime release of studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom rentals on the lower floors of Eight Spruce Street, the focus moves skyward, to floors  40 through 76 with larger, family-friendly two-and-three bedroom residences, featuring unique layouts, expansive views and elegant finishes.

Frank Gehry not only designed the building’s exhilarating façade but all of the interiors and amenity spaces, curating all finishes and fixtures, and styling the building’s 20 model apartments. The artist’s hand is in evidence throughout Eight Spruce Street–from the striking sculptural concierge desk in the lobby to the screening room’s free-form amphitheater-style seating in the amenity space, constructed in Gehry’s signature honey-colored vertical grain Douglas Fir.

“I designed a building I would want to live in as a New Yorker.” Said Frank Gehry, “ You could say this is my love letter to New York City. I’m thrilled we were able to do it in Lower Manhattan, which allowed me to be part of something so meaningful—to stand with this building’s neighbors, the residents and businesses of this neighborhood. We worked together over the past seven years to create a new icon for Lower Manhattan.”

During a sunset event held Tuesday, July 26th, over 150 specialty brokers got their first look at these upper floor apartments, presented by developer Bruce Ratner and architect Frank Gehry. The party showcased a terraced three-bedroom model unit on the 52nd floor with expansive views of the city.
