That railing is LOW....

Trust me as someone who lives in NYC, the two elevator thing is a HUGE deal. My building is only 22 stories high and I am constantly having to wait 5+ minutes for one to come, and these don’t even open directly into ppl’s homes and can be shared. I would straight up never live in a building this tall with only two elevators, keep in mind there will be many times where one of the elevators will be dedicated to ppl moving in for hours or for the building staff to make trash pickups. Imagine being on the 60th floor and there is only one operational elevator that has to make individual pickups and drop-offs in the lobby, no exaggeration to say you could be waiting 15-20 minutes at times which is obviously horrible if you are in a rush or there’s an emergency. These are the details most ppl do not take into account when buying a place but you absolutely should, it’s something that will effect your life on a daily basis and can never be changed.

100% agree. I live in a Chicago 30-floor building with three shared elevators (2 residential + 1 service) and wait times can be horrendous-and that’s when all 3 elevators are in service. What happens in Steinway Tower if one of its two elevators breaks down? In my building, when one elevator goes out of service and needs repairs, our wait times double. And if someone needs the service elevator for moving or delivery, some of us just plan to not bother trying to leave home or order food/grocery/etc. delivery that day. 😅Usually a broken elevator stays out of service for at least 1.5 days. Something tells me Steinway Tower doesn’t have a dedicated elevator service person on-call for same-day repair.

I lived in a much smaller building with only two elevators and the waiting was horrible. Often the elevator would be full when it finally arrived. Just the deliveries and servants will create a lot of traffic. Not even a service elevator? Also, how can they be sure there is nobody inside the elevator when it goes to pick up somebody in the middle of their 50M home? I suppose when the elevator is at the 60th floor, you are at the 50th floor, the elevator will go all the way down to the lobby, where a guard checks it is empty. Then it goes back up to to the 50th. That is really inefficient. If the elevator smells really badly then your cheap home will get a bit of perfume also. And if 10 people are waiting in the lobby they each have to wait for the elevator to go up and then down with one person inside?! I would bring a chair and a computer so I could work while waiting. Surely there must be more elevators reserved for the lower floors - but it can't be a lot as the building is so skinny. This baffles me.

@pierre.a.larsen

28 күн бұрын

Well - one of the elevators is double decker with the bottom one being the service unit going to/from the basement. It is not a third elevator. But it helps a bit. There are no elevators reserved for the lower floors of the tower. There are only two elevator shafts for all the tower apartments (46) from 17th floor (called 20 as they cheat) to the top floor. "A pair of elevators connect each of the tower stories to the ground level and floor 10. One is a double-deck elevator with a service cab on the lower deck, which also descends to the cellar, while the other is a single-deck elevator"

Seriously. My stomach dropped for a solid minute while the realtor was walking around out there.

A friend of mine knows someone who looked at a unit at 111 West 57th. The takeaway from their viewing was that all the rooms are tiny, and things felt on a smaller scale - for example countertops did not feel as deep as standard (such as in the kitchen, and check out the width of the stairs, they are almost unusable) - to give a sense that there was more room than there actually was. The other takeaway was that while it photographs well (especially if you use the proper lens to make it feel bigger, which is the case in Conover's video) is that the build quality was not all that. In addition, I was told it feels very claustrophobic and if there were standard height ceilings it would show how truly cramped it is. Height to width ratio of 24:1 (IIRC) is insane. I don’t care if it has a mass damper, that puppy is gonna sway in moderate to high winds big time. And that “Romeo and Juliet balcony” (good call on that by the way) is useless, and there’s no way you’d get me on that (that retaining glass is not high enough). All of that said, the one thing that never seems to be mentioned about these super slender high rise condos is that they have much fewer units than a building of normal width and depth for that height. That means that, aside from common charges (which for that place are around $20,000.00 per month) the cost to maintain a mega tall skyscraper after a number of years, by so few people will end up costing more than one originally paid for the unit. Yeah, sure, 20K a month for someone who can afford 57 million is no big deal, but after some years when the special assessments start to hit, repairs and upkeep to perform work beyond the general scope of maintenance, that’s going to be insane. (There are some Wilshire Corridor owners out there who know what I’m talking about, and those are folks have much higher percentage of units per height, and the structures are nowhere near as complicated and expensive). I subscribed because I’m really liking your observations. Well done. BTW, Conover did a 2fer (2 units in a single video) at Madison House (in NoMad at 15 East 30th St). The lower unit on the 58th floor, which is a single story, and I like better than the penthouse above, has one of the most insane views of any condo in Manhattan I’ve seen. It alone is worth the 13.9 million asking price. You might want to check that one out. Cheers!

Creepy

No idea why KZread recommended this video but I'm very glad they did. What an outstanding, even-handed, in-depth, perceptive assessment of a living space for "the other half". To me, these residences are cold, antiseptic, and very corporate feeling. No warmth whatsoever. And, I must admit, at first I thought that realtor was AI generated.

I was on the observation deck in Sears Tower in Chicago during a storm about 30 years ago & felt the swaying sensation. Just based on that 15minutes & having to walk all the way down bc the elevators stopped working I’d never in a million years buy a condo/apartment way up a skyscraper. The swaying is really uncomfortable & that was in a relatively wide building & not as high up as this apartment is. If you felt sick & your apartment started swaying side to side it’d be absolutely miserable. Imagine if you were older & had a condition that made you dizzy…you wouldn’t know if it was your illness or if it was the building. Even as a kid the swaying made me feel anxious & uncomfortable.

Since you are the "How to buy a mansion guy" I would say a video comparing the pros and cons of mansions / townhouses vs penthouses / luxury condos might be interesting as well. I faced that dilemma a bit in Switzerland where an apartment with private pool terrace in an A+ location was asking the very same as a house in an A-/B+ neighborhood and offered the exact same amenities and comparable finishes and both were lakefront properties. Generally speaking it can also be easy to fall prey to buying amenities which you don't actually use that often when talking about mansions (e.g. home cinemas while common in luxury mansions, do you you really use them enough? Or how do you like to entertain and who are your guests - friends vs business partners?). In many of these cases shared amenities in a luxury condo building can be a cool alternative even though that means a bit less privacy / flexibility. Or take a shared gym in the right building which can also be great for networking. Plus always consider maintenance costs, taxes and available services (concierge, security, chefs) etc... Also learn as much as you can about your neighbors before buying (e.g. families = children noise while very old neighbors means that these neighboring properties might soon come onto the market) and the building (how many apartments and buyer structure/turnover). Or ask yourself the question whether you would also consider buying something which needs a bit of work done (can be great deals) rather than a done house and is a done house really a done house in your eyes. This said, my personal advice to anyone looking to buy property is to gain clarity regarding what you really need and want first (and how much time you actually spend there -> primary vs. secondary residence, etc.)! Once you figured out how you want to live and what amenities and layout you want and which ones are optional/just nice to have approach your broker with that list and ask them to tell you a price range matching these criteria. Don't tell them your budget right of the bat because my experience has been that once you put that number out there they'll only show you properties around that number! Back in 2018 I for example told the broker my budget is 60 million (and also got shown 111 West 57th despite not a great match to my criteria of which one was outdoor space) and they only showed me products around that price point. Only by incident back then I heard about a property which cost half of what my budget was yet met all my criteria in a great neighborhood... and that to me is a bit of a problem that brokers are so budget focused rather than "lifestyle-focused" and hence I suggest you try to reverse that if you can by letting the broker know how you want to live and then let them educate you what this means in terms of pricing. Take it from there. *PS: Another great and educative video, Arvin! You're doing a great job here and I really like your videos!* PPS: I guess two offices in an apartment can make sense: One office for him and one for her.

At night, reflective glass doesn't do much......one can still see into apartments. I don't love onyx either. I thought it was too soft for countertops. The piano theme was great until we got to the kitchen cabinets. (Did they forget the black keys?) Every elevator shaft eats up space, so I understand limiting it to two. Since units are going to be sold for foreign money laundering, no one will care about waiting 10 minutes for their elevator. The glamour of Manhattan at night is stupendous. All in all, much more thought and quality went into this building. Very little to complain about. I really love the 'corner moments.'

Something else no-one mentions about penthouse apartments is that at the higher floors you're going to be spending more time waiting for and in an elevator; don't be surprised if it takes 5 minutes from when you press the elevator button in your apartment to when you exit the lobby/garage. Now imagine it taking 5 minutes from your front door to the street; something equivalent is having a big block of land that can only be reached via a dirt path.

Two elevators work fine here. The owners of these apartments have multiple properties and likely will only spend a few weeks a year in this building, if that. So no worry that both elevators would be in use at the same time. On West 57th there are probably right now only a handful of apartments where someone is home today. I walk by these building entrances frequently and have yet to see anyone except a doorman enter or leave, not even a food delivery, It's for good reason in NYC they are called 'safe deposit boxes in the sky'.

Terrific review! You've got a new subscriber. The architectural beauty of this tower can hardly be overstated. Regarding the piano-key referencing of the kitchen cabinets, too corny to mention--especially since piano keys are flat, not fluted like the cabinet doors. Thankfully, there's no echoing of the 3 + 2 black-key patterns! The main take-away for me is the degree to which the limitations of space in this sort of construction so significantly compromise the overall luxury of the lived experience.

Gotta say - your take is really good. Thank you for your views.

The one you showed at the end from Enes, I just opened the main TV News website of my country this morning and there was an article about it. Saying the owners are suing the responsibles for the construction of that building. About this one. New York. I can never agree with the prices of most Penthouses. The bedrooms are the size as the ones in my house. Even taking into consideration, the location, luxury, views. You pay so much for such a tight space. And the fact I've seen better penthouses more spacious with better prices, doesn't make me like it at all.

Arvin I stumbled onto your channel a few weeks back must say it is refreshing to actually see someone provide a true critique without bias. Most of your observations I agree with almost 100% ie... building in NYC with $130m price and Japanese design--it was bland and boring. The Cali homes you comment on are fantastic as well. Honestly if I ever build a house I am reaching out to you for advice--we are like minded in our thoughts on things. Love your channel!

These properties exist as places to store money, lots of money, often laundered money. Not to be lived in. The things you point out, like time waiting for the elevator or the angle of view to the park are not very relevant to their value since they will be empty most of the time.

Beautiful building and views-far superior to the Japanese penthouse in the clouds. I got insane anxiety just watching him on the balcony 😅 and then he stuck his head over the edge 😳

Damn…I’m only 1:39 seconds and Arvin already is schooling me. I LEARN SO MUCH FROM THIS CHANNEL. This point about the elevator was gold….wow..

The kitchen kinda small for this price. The elevator situation would drive me nuts

Such a cool chan ~ pointing out the flaws! Wonder if the 'smoked oak' was from a fire sale?

With so many golden moments, I thought the agent was going refer to the master shower as having “golden showers”. 😂😂😂😂

Corner hours and golden moments. Wow, realtor mixing it all up lol. Great review!

My fav property I've watched on your channel so far (I would never wanna live there : )

If I had the money, I would buy it. A 100 % for sure...

I actually love this place. I do agree that reconfiguring the primary to make a casual TV room is needed. The railing on the terrace seems low to me but maybe that dude is 7 feet tall? 😂

Captivating review! I agree the function is lacking a bit but the aesthetic is truly art!

- ‘Would you rather wake up to the south or north?…’ -‘I would rather Subscribe to this channel!!!’ 😂😂😂 Well played 👏👏👏

Suppose it's safe, but swinging in the middle of the night, I won't be able to sleep 💤

It seems that these super tall buildings such as this one (particularly on the highest floors) would be like living in a thriller suspense movie. Not knowing when it will succumb to weather and wind. Also a balcony at that height just gives me the MOST anxiety. It is starting to be kinda cliche to build “the tallest” building. There are SO many other things to covet in a great residential building.

Thanks for your review. I will buy one.

The developer knew 2 elevator would be enough because few people actually live there.

@@ArvinHaddadOfficial much love, i subscribed ❤

I love your videos Arvin

Arvin you are very knowledgeable about Real Estate. I think you will be an architect, and a house developer in your next career. I like the Central Park view and the New York view of this penthouse.

14:43 I think this balustrade is a bit too low. It's not very safe. If a drunk person leans out too far, he or she may fall over the barrier.
