In this design proposal on Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side, an inverted tapered form maximizes value by placing the largest floors at the top of the tower while simultaneously twisting to maximize views of Central Park. It also includes numerous landscaped terraces and loggias, effectively bringing the “park” into the building itself. A limestone and bronze material palette knits the building into its neighborhood at street-level while a sheltered motor court and townhouse lobby provide tranquil points of entry.
