New York, New York (PRWEB) May 06, 2015 -- TOWN New Development and Bluerock Real Estate are proud to announce that closings have begun at The Charles, the Upper East Side’s highly acclaimed luxury tower located at 1355 First Avenue, between 72nd & 73rd Streets, and listed by Ginger Brokaw and Jason Karadus of TOWN New Development. Among units currently in contract is the building’s nearly $38 million penthouse, which broke records for the neighborhood.

Set against a dramatic backdrop of incomparable, panoramic city and river views, The Charles’ full-floor-only residences have set a new standard for luxury living and privacy in New York City.

Set against a dramatic backdrop of incomparable, panoramic city and river views, The Charles’ full-floor-only residences have set a new standard for luxury living and privacy in New York City. Units are designed on a grand scale with thoughtfully-planned, four-bedroom, four bath layouts; private, keyed elevator entrances; light-filled great rooms; and oversized modern kitchens and dining rooms.

The majority of the project is spoken for.

The homes deliver a contemporary take on gracious Manhattan living. Oversized living and dining rooms feature hallmark floor-to-ceiling windows that celebrate the city’s expansive views and streaming natural light. Residents will also find beautifully appointed eat-in kitchens with Miele and Sub-Zero appliances; grand master suites with ample dressing areas; walk-in closets; and marble spa baths. Opulent finishes, including five-inch, white oak wood and marble flooring, provide timeless elegance to each unit, while the ceiling heights in every unit exceed 9ft to create a feeling of abundant space and volume.

To ensure that homes are ultra-quiet, the developers have installed a state-of-the-art, four-pipe fancoil system which is virtually invisible and silent. Substantial under-floor padding nearly eliminates any noise transmission as well.

The Charles was designed by architect, Ismael Levya, lauded worldwide for captivating designs that are both contemporary and sophisticated. Ismael Levya has designed many iconic residential developments in New York City, including 88 Greenwich, icon in Hell’s Kitchen and Place 57 in Midtown.

Interiors, designed by David Collins Studio, designer of The London NYC hotel and a myriad of ultra-high end residences across the globe, feature the timeless, elegant aesthetic found in many of firm’s breathtaking private residences and signature commercial projects.

“The Charles is unique, and truly stunning. The high percentage of units to go into contract pre-opening is a testament to the flawless quality,” said Ginger Brokaw of TOWN New Development. “The Charles continues to challenge boundaries, from its daring, full-floor design to its extraordinary sales record,” Jason Karadus of TOWN New Development adds.

Bluerock, which has been working with Town New Development to market the property, is particularly pleased with the project’s progress and with the initiation of closings. “TOWN New Development has been a gracious, creative and truly well-informed partner on The Charles,” said Phil Mendlow of Bluerock Real Estate. “Their enthusiasm for The Charles is as sincere as our own and their ability to understand what residents in the area need has helped them to serve as very skilled matchmakers for the building. We have no doubt that there will be very good harmony between the homebuyers and their homes.”

The 32-story glass tower, developed by Bluerock Real Estate and Victor Homes, breaks from the traditional, pre-war, and post-war brick architecture of its surroundings while blending elegantly into the neighborhood with a seven-story, limestone base.

Building amenities include a resident lounge, private storage, fitness center, game room, and 24-hour doorman and concierge.

A limited selection of the Upper East Side’s best full-floor, four-bedroom value remain, available for immediate occupancy, ranging from $6,583,500 to $9,882,000. Available residences include:
