Exterior work is progressing on The Henry, an 18-story residential building at 211 West 84th Street on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. Designed by Robert A. M. Stern Architects with Hill West Architects as the architect of record and developed by Naftali Group, the 209-foot-tall structure will span 154,598 square feet and yield 45 condominium units with an average scope of 3,371 square feet. The building will also contain 2,898 square feet of ground-floor retail space, a cellar level, and 17 enclosed parking spaces. The property has nearly 250 feet of frontage along West 84th Street from the corner of Broadway to the middle of the city block.
The façade has steadily enclosed the lower half of the building since our last on-site update in late July, when the reinforced concrete superstructure had just topped out. The first three stories are enclosed in gray limestone, while the levels above are primarily clad in tan brick with limestone trim work. The latter includes broad fluted columns at the corners and within the fenestration, and around the double-height windows on the western elevation facing Broadway. Meanwhile, window installation is further ahead than the envelope, which is being installed from hanging rigs on both sides of the building. Scaffolding and black netting cover the structure above the main setback.

The shorter eastern wing of the building is partially hidden behind scaffolding. This section of the development will house the collection of townhouses and the entrance to the private parking garage, which can be seen with their intended appearance in the renderings below.

Need more nice buildings like this on the UWS.
It’s a shame what was torn down for this, but at least the architecture is almost as good.
Awesome update and nice photographs!
Is that little blue door the main entrance?
No, that’s for the townhome collection. There’s a separate rendering of the main entrance with that sidewalk canopy and giant arched window above the doors
Oh. Yeah. How did I miss that? It’s a beautiful building.
RAMSA and Naftali does it again! Such an awesome pair of designer and developer team
gorgeous photos too!
Très élégante!
I like the design and the execution seems to be very well done, but it feels weird having the tower stand shoulder to shoulder with the building next door. If they had more development rights and a larger zoning envelope an extra 2-3 floors on the tower would have made this a much more exciting building.
I can’t wait to see all the brickwork installed
RAMSA-designed residential buildings are the Boardwalk and Park Place of Manhattan’s Monopoly-game real estate.
A lovely new building, excellent details, good taste all around. Wish that I could say this more often about new construction.
very nice design .
but….
Would have been nice for the grand pre-wars on 84th street where saved. AND the air rights to build taller at the corner.
