Bromley Caldari Architects is designing the property, which will launch sales this spring, according to Curbed. Occupancy is expected to start in the spring of 2015.
Peter Armstrong’s Rigby Asset Management picked up the 50,000-square-foot property in early 2013 for $50.24 million — or $1,000 per square foot — setting a record at the time. Seller the Brauser Group, one of Manhattan’s major garage owners, commissioned architecture firm GreenbergFarrow to analyze the building’s potential as a condominium prior to the sale.
