The above rendering has been released for 96+Broadway, a 23-story new development condo located at 2551-2555 Broadway on the corner of 96th Street.
Once complete, the building will come with 131 apartments ranging from one-to-five bedrooms, as well as 9,080 square feet of ground-floor retail space, New York YIMBY reports.

The former site was home to a ground floor Gristedes.

Designed by Danish architect Thomas Juul-Hansen, the building will come with a 75-foot indoor saltwater pool; fitness center and pilates room; squash and basketball courts; playroom and game lounge; and a rooftop terrace with an outdoor movie screen, lounge seating and outdoor kitchen.
A handful of furnished apartments are expected to be released this summer, and closings are scheduled to begin late this year.
Construction is currently slated for completion in Q4 of 2022. We’ve asked for a price range but a representative for the building wasn’t able to share one yet.

Looks awesome!! More of these on the UWS please!
Speak for yourself!
You clearly don’t live near that corner, or commute. It’s a disaster.
Why disaster? Suppose there had been a reasonable-sized 150′ 14-story building there in the original 1920-30s style of West End Avenue (with retail on the street); how many more people will be in this new building than would have been in an older one? It’s certainly a busy corner, but this is NYC, there’s residential space everywhere.
I thought they were going to use the space to build affordable housing for seniors. WTH?
The affordable housing for seniors is planned for the building going up just to the west of this one, replacing the power substation and salvation army buildings. This is just a luxury building with a cantilever being its most interesting feature for me. The dark, divided up windows make it seem like a prison to my eye, but apparently many people here like it.
Nice rendering – I see the plan involves getting rid of the steep hill on that block, lol
That’s funny, I was wondering what was wrong with that picture and you’re right, that’s it. Where is the hill going down to West End Ave.?
The rendering also includes the substation on 96th that is being removed.
Still too close to McDonald’s.
And I’m sure “affordable” units are more than $1.3 million dollars, with monthly fees of at least a couple thousand.
Salt water pool could be nice, but I bet it’s 5 feet wide.
Nice looking building for that corner. Exciting to get some desperately needed new housing in the UWS.
This is only “housing” for the very well of to people who are rich.
And in many cases, even for the “inexpensive” apartments, the “housing” will be 2nd or 3rd “homes”.
It looks beautiful. Definitely an improvement to that dodgy area.
“Dodgy?”–by what criteria? The area along Broadway has many new and old luxury condo, co-op, and rental buildings.
New architecture and glass, steel palaces that no one can afford cannot compete with the beauty and sophistication of classic pre-war buildings and brownstones.
