Upon completion, it became the tallest residential building in New York City, a groundbreaking achievement in scale and design. The limestone-clad building seamlessly blends classical elegance with architectural innovation, earning praise from historians such as Robert A.M. Stern. Today, it remains a timeless symbol of luxury living.
