Lavish exterior, contemporary interior saturated with rich history, 90 West Street’s historic granite and terracotta façade reflects the best of the city’s past. Its 21st-century interior offers inviting contemporary rental residences with soaring ceilings. From romantic archways to the gargoyles perched on its facade, 90 West ushers you into a plush, fashionable lifestyle articulated by a distinctive Gothic vocabulary.
This distinguished structure was designed by Cass Gilbert in 1907, several years before he designed the magnificent Woolworth Building at 233 Broadway. The building originally boasted a top-floor establishment that billed itself as the highest restaurant in New York. In 1998, the building's exterior was designated an architectural landmark by the city's Landmarks Preservation Commission. The building reopened in the spring of 2005 as a 410-unit rental apartment building, and its meticulous restoration earned it in 2006 a National Preservation Honor Award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation
The restored building has a garden courtyard, a gym, a recreation room, central air-conditioning and a garage. The building has a doorman, and some ceilings are 14-feet-six-inches high. Some apartments have skylights.
