CROWN JEWELS

Originally designed for Tiffany & Co. in 1870, 15 Union Square West has been magically transformed into a five-star residence by renowned architect Eran Chen of Perkins Eastman. With interiors designed by the highly-regarded Vicente Wolf, these 2BR homes range from 1,763 to 2,189 square feet and the 3BR homes range from 2,370 to 3,164 square feet. The ceilings on the original first five floors rise to 16 feet and the newly-added sixth through 12th floors are designed as a series of elegant glass cubes set at different angles with sweeping park and city views and large terraces. Quite a few have working fireplaces and all feature Total Home Technology by Creston with blinds, lighting, and temperature controlled by touchpads. There’s a lovely indoor pool, a gym with spa services, personal trainers and nutritional counselors available, 24-hour concierge services from Luxury Attaché, private storage, and valet parking. From about $4 million. FALL 2008.
