Skyline Developers Launches Ultra-Luxury Tower in Midtown
18W55, an ultra-luxury rental tower in Midtown Manhattan, is now open. The Wilf Family’s Skyline Developers announced the official news. Morris Adjmi Architects designed the 25-story building that is now welcoming residents.
A first-of-its-kind rental in the Fifth Avenue corridor, the building launched its leasing in September. It’s now hitting a major milestone as the first residents begin to move in. Approximately 25% of the tower has already been leased.
The strong leasing response highlights Midtown’s confident, high-end rental market. The building is adjacent to Billionaires’ Row and brings 97 condominium-quality residences. These residences range from studios to three-bedroom apartments, including a limited collection of full-floor penthouses.
Seventeen units offer private terraces, and interiors reflect Morris Adjmi’s signature craftsmanship. Finishes in marble, travertine, and stone evoke a timeless Fifth Avenue elegance.
The residences feature an open and airy layout, bathed in natural light. The oversized windows and high ceilings show off the graciously proportioned residences. The penthouses, meticulously designed, offer a new standard for luxury and service in Manhattan rentals.
