Vandewater’s Façade Reaching Final Floors at 543 West 122nd Street in Morningside Heights

Vandewater, designed by Incorporated Architecture & Design and developed by Savanna

The façade for Vandewater is reaching the upper floors of the 33-story, 385-foot-tall reinforced concrete structure, in Morningside Heights. Located at 543 West 122nd Street, the residential building now towers over the surrounding neighborhood. The project is designed by INC Architecture & Design, with SLCE Architects serving as the executive architect. Savanna is the developer, and Halstead Development Marketing is handling sales for the 183 condominiums.

The building will contain 24,000 square feet of amenities including a cobblestone motor court, a 24-hour attended lobby, concierge service by Luxury Attache, a salon, great room, and club room. Other features include a fitness center with a quiet energy room, a 70-foot lap pool, a pet spa, a practice room, a children’s playroom, a private outdoor dining terrace, and landscaped gardens designed by Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates.

Completion of Vandewater is expected next year.

  1. Thanks to Michael Young: I am not well-informed as the designer revealed. But I was able to distinguish whether tall or short, or whether it was very beautiful or the least beautiful. As you reported, I think the development orbit is always interesting.

  2. Blends right in.
