Having topped out in September of 2015, 50 West Street is on target for completion this year, with occupancy scheduled for this fall. The 778 foot, 64 floor Helmut Jahn-designed tower will feature a private observation deck on the top floor reserved exclusively for residents. Located blocks away from the World Trade Center and the Financial District, the slender skyscraper will offer views of New York Harbor and the Statue of Liberty through its curvilinear, all-glass facade. With this curved glass design, corner panels and vertical mullions are unnecessary, giving residents a completely unobstructed view. On the south side of the tower, the facade sweeps over the curved cantilevered base to a pedestrian walkway between the building and the Battery Garage, using the dramatic curves to open up a formerly claustrophobic space.

Aside from the observation terrace, the building features a plethora of luxurious amenities, including a “water club,” full-floor fitness center, entertainment floor, and, on the third floor, fifteen “commercial condominiums,” or private offices, that vary in size from 280 to 830 square feet and are available for purchase by the tower’s residents. 50 West contains 191 condos with interiors designed by Thomas Juul-Hansen, ranging from one- and four-bedroom units to full- and half-floor penthouses with an average price of $2,400 per square foot. Two of the building's penthouses are currently on the market for $20.3 million and $24.5 million.
