A wave of glitzy new condominium projects is coming to Manhattan by the end of the year, bringing the annual total of new apartment units to a whopping 5,300 — more than twice the number that hit the market during the same period last year,... “After several years of extremely limited new development introductions, the market really opened up in 2015, offering buyers an incredible amount of choice across neighborhoods and price points,” said Kelly Kennedy Mack, president of Corcoran... With so many new units flooding the market, developers are going to great lengths to make their projects stand out by hiring big-name starchitects, incorporating far-out amenities and building taller than ever before. Here are some of the sexiest new projects coming to the market this fall. This showstopping skyscraper, designed by SHoP Architects, is nestled next to the landmarked Steinway Building that was home to the main showroom for Steinway & Sons pianos for nearly 90 years. The tower, developed by JDS Development and Property Markets Group, tops 1,428 feet, making it significantly taller than 432 Park Ave. Tom Ford’s designer of choice, William Sofield, did the interiors.
