has proposed a cube volume rotated onto one of its corners. Known as
‘kežmarské hut’, the structure is intended to be a sustainable dwelling

What It’s Like To Live In A $95-Million Penthouse 1,396 Feet Above New York City
432 Park Avenue – this is the address of
the New York skyline’s newest ornament and of the tallest residential
tower in the Western Hemisphere. Towering up to 1,396 ft, the skyscraper
offers 104 apartments at 30,000 sq ft each with 12.5 ft ceilings, 10 x
10 ft windows, and prices ranging from $16,95 million to $82,5 million.
The breathtaking condo tower was
designed by Rafael Viñoly and took three years to construct. It is
situated in the center of Manhattan, and the upper penthouses offer a
view of all of New York City: from the Hudson to the East River, from
the Bronx to Brooklyn, and from Central Park to the Atlantic Ocean. The
building also features a private restaurant with an outdoor terrace, a
75ft swimming pool/spa, a screening room/ performance venue,
climate-controlled wine cellars, a children’s playroom and a board room.
The skyscraper will welcome its first
residents next year, so if you’re looking for a nice little place in NY
and have a solid bank account, you’d better hurry, as the penthouses are
going like hot cakes.
