This very large rental apartment tower, which was completed in 1998, lessens its impact on the street by chamfering its corner at the avenue and provides welcome light and air, opening up interesting views for residents.

Archstone Midtown West, which was originally called the Gershwin, is on the same cross-street as Rockefeller Center, Saks Fifth Avenue and St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Cathedral and borders the Theatre District and the northern fringes of Times Square. Good luck eating in when you live a walk from 9th Avenue's famed Restaurant Row.

It has a pool, a garage, a doorman, a recreation room, a sundeck, and valet service. The building has many corner windows and bay windows. Public transportation is excellent.
