The exterior work of Era is in progress, a 20-story apartment building located at 251 West 91st Street, Upper West Side in Manhattan. This reinforced concrete building was designed by ODA Architects and developed by Adam America Real Estate and Northlink Capital. It has an eye-catching stepped cantilever and will build 57 houses on the corner of 91st Street and Broadway. Reuveni Real Estate specializes in marketing and sales, and Urban Atelier Group is the general contractor for the project.

The photos viewed from Broadway show that limestone panels are installed on the lower half of the superstructure, some of which have upward-pointing V-shaped patterns. The window installation is also close to the last set of floors. The top mechanical extension is still covered with scaffolding and netting, and the external elevator hoist is connected to the south side of the building.

The most noteworthy architectural feature of the project is the cantilever overhanging the adjacent Equinox Stadium. When the staff assembled the outer walls of the northern outline, temporary platforms covered every part. As the project approaches completion, these will be deleted.

Completely resist the gravity of the world, for the building's standing. The interior part I would say it is very beautiful and luxurious like a palace: thanks to Michael Young.

to whom It May Concern. I am an old man living alone. I am looking for a safe place to live...

It just leaves you speechless.

What happens during a hurricane?

The strange thing is that the developer was unable to reach an agreement with the related company and build a complete building or two side-by-side buildings (similar to the related/spring equinox building on Amsterdam Avenue), where the equinox moved for 2 years and back. The cantilever gymnastics seems to be forced. In the long run, it is unnecessary... Now there is a big vacancy under the equinox... Until a new building is forced in, but the air rights are limited.

Hope someone can save the kitten from that Petco for adoption before the building collapses? !

Just because you can doesn't mean you should

This shape is too bad

The definition of "structural"...this is well-meaning. Good luck to the developers!
