NYC Rental Apartments near Metropolitan Museum Art Gift

Situated next to the sculpture garden at the Museum of Modern Art at 15 West 53rd Street in Midtown Manhattan, Museum Tower is a 52-story luxury rental high-rise with a prestigious history. Originally constructed as an extension to the MoMA, Museum Tower was a much anticipated addition to the skyline of Midtown Manhattan. This post-war condo tower was completed in the early 1980s, and it fulfilled the expectations of real estate observers in Manhattan; the apartments for rent in Museum Tower were and still are among the most luxurious in Midtown Manhattan.

Cassa, a newly constructed luxury high-rise in the Midtown section of Manhattan built in 2009, stands out among Manhattan’s new luxury rental apartment buildings for many reasons. Located at 70 West 45th Street in a centralized location between 5th and 6th Avenue, Cassa has a white exterior and a bold, obelisk-like design that makes it unmistakable, especially in contrast to the older buildings that surround it.
