On Monday, Google announced its plans to invest $1 billion  to open a new campus in the New York City neighborhood known as Hudson Square (at 315 and 345 Hudson, and then also 550 Washington). Hudson Square was once known as the Printing District because of the printing companies attracted to the large concrete and steel factory buildings located close to their Wall Street clients. In the 1970s and ‘80s, technology and design companies replaced the printing industry, attracted by the architecture, location, transportation options, and affordable rents. In recent years, the area has experienced a building boom. Not only is the neighborhood growing in height and number of residences but a large fund has been set aside to increase the neighborhood’s commercial mix, greenery, and traffic flow. Now, with the news of Google’s investment, the neighborhood is set to soar.

Corcoran broker, Todd Vitolo, is a Hudson Square expert. Vitolo says, “This once fringe neighborhood primarily attracted early adopters, artists, and families looking for privacy. Today with the southern portion of the neighborhood feels more like an extension of Northern TriBeCa. You have everything from the Renzo Piano designed 565 Broome where they recently put a $37mm Penthouse residence into contract, to the just launched Greenwich West and Extell's 70 Charlton. Those residences that take advantage of the Hudson River views or have an an architectural pedigree will certainly attract the super luxury buyers attention away from Tribeca and Soho proper for years to come. The best part of this neighborhood, and unlike the West Village or Tribeca in my jaded broker opinion is that there are zero tourists...a true downtown luxury these days.”

Here are some of the most luxurious homes for sale and rent in Hudson Square that Google executives take residence in and stroll to work.

70 Charlton was the first residential building to break ground in Hudson Square since the neighborhood’s 2013 rezoning which allowed for the creation of more residential and retail in development as well as an elementary school and open space. Unlike other developments currently underway, 70 Charlton is move-in ready with an unprecedented suite of amenities for the area including an indoor salt water pool, sauna, sports court, interior courtyard garden, children’s play room, fitness center and indoor/outdoor residents lounge with catering kitchen.

The open gourmet kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, wine fridge, Caesarstone Blizzard slab countertops, painted steel trim and grey washed oak floors. The south-facing master bedroom suite is a retreat tucked away with a large walk-in closet, and spa bath with separate shower and freestanding tub. The home features three additional bedroom suites and a powder room.

All too often, new buildings are plopped down in the middle of the city with little regard for their location or context. When this happens on a recurring basis, cities around the world all start to become indistinguishable from one another. But when a building really considers its time, place and context, there is a uniqueness that buyers and residences truly value.

The following buildings have made concerted efforts to incorporate their context not only in their exterior architecture but also in the amenities they offer. With the diversity of New York City neighborhoods, there is a lot of material to draw on.

20 East End Avenue

Situated in a prestigious enclave on the Upper East Side, 20 East End Avenue fully embraces the neighborhood’s old school elegance in every aspect of the building. In addition to the beautiful limestone exterior which seamlessly blends into its stately surrounds, the entire amenities program evokes an era when the Astors, Vanderbilts, and Rockefellers dominated Manhattan and defined luxury. Just as these historic families lived in massive city homes where they entertained with ease, 20 East End created an amenities program that allows its residents to host parties where guests can drift from room to room as if they were in Vincent and Brooke Astor’s nearby mansion (from the motor court to the library, billiard room, wine cellar, and on). All of that without even stepping foot into a private residence.

One of the many standout amenities is the stunning midnight blue lacquered library with the roaring fireplace and a Jeffrey Milstein aerial photo of the nearby Metropolitan Museum of Art above. Not only does the elegant library and the Milstein photo remind people of the building's location and context but the developer, Ed Baquero, commissioned his world-renowned architect, Robert A.M. Stern, to curate a massive book collection as a love letter to New York. All the books are about New York’s culture from architecture to graffiti art, the best New York has to offer.

Situated in the Upper East Side's coveted Carnegie Hill neighborhood, 180 East 88th Street is a striking condominium being developed and designed by national real estate developer DDG. Residents have access to an extensive selection of amenities but one that stands out in terms of respecting its location is their interactive children’s playroom designed in partnership with the Children’s Museum of the Arts. The light-filled room features plenty of space to run, draw, and play, and best, a slide. DDG was inspired by the building's proximity to and magnificent views of Central Park for the design of the playroom. The developers collaborated with several artists that commonly work with the American Museum of Natural History to create a one-of-a-kind diorama that will be housed in the children's playroom when the building is complete. Specifically designed to showcase the building's stunning Central Park views in an unconventional and experiential way, the extraordinary mural depicts a unique, tree-top vista of Central Park that includes the City's iconic skyline and continues onto the adjacent walls with a unique LEGO installation.

101 West 78th Street is an iconic,  late 19th Century building that has been transformed into a modern and elegant Upper West Side condominium residence. Designed by Belgian born Emile Gruwe and completed in 1886, the building is located directly across the street from The American Museum of Natural History and just one block from Central Park. Stephen Sills, Architectural Digest AD 100 designer transformed the building’s interiors, including the impressive lobby, polished amenity spaces, and a collection of generously appointed two to five bedroom condominium residences. The building offers a children’s playroom with a wall mural inspired by the Natural History Museum.

Jardim

Tucked away in Manhattan’s West Chelsea neighborhood, Jardim is the first U.S. residential development by Isay Weinfeld, the world-renowned Brazilian architect and interior designer known for his hotels and high-end homes, including the Fasano Hotels and the recently opened reincarnation of New York’s iconic Four Seasons Restaurant. Taking cues from its High Line-adjacent location, this plant-filled property boasts an ultra-private urban park that envelops the two 11-story towers comprising the development. A canopy of native evergreens and fragrant flowering trees soars above clusters of indigenous shrubs, while intimate lounge areas are nestled within thickets of native ferns and grasses, along with layered plantings of long-blooming perennials. In addition to its signature gardens, Jardim’s amenities include a sky-lit swimming pool, fitness studios, steam rooms and saunas—plus a block-long private tunnel that serves as a paparazzi-proof porte-cochère.

The Kent

Fans of New York’s iconic Palace Hotel will see similarities between this iconic grand dame and The Kent’s Drawing Room which was designed to be a place to be a meeting place as well as a space to receive and entertain guests. Similar to the Palace Hotel’s gilded cove ceiling, the Drawing Room also highlights a luminous gold cove feature. The bulbous, shimmering custom chandeliers that drop from the ceiling all complemented by lacquered, rich, wood panels and antique mirrors also draws parallels between the two entities.

Brooklyn Point

Brooklynites have long been climbing to greater heights at local climbing studio, Brooklyn Boulders. Now in downtown Brooklyn, residents at Brooklyn Point will be able to reach 35 foot altitudes within their own residential tower! Within the 40,000 square foot amenities package at Brooklyn Point is a 35-rock climbing wall. Overlooking double-height windows, the wall is as dramatic in design as it is challenging. Extell Development Company, inspired by Brooklyn Boulders to build the wall, will be partnering with the neighborhood staple to activate the space and offer private climbing classes for residents.

Raizy Haas, senior vice president in charge of development at Extell Development, explains, “In my travels to Istanbul, I personally experienced the hammam tradition. It was overwhelming and amazing. I was always hoping we could incorporate into one of our projects and now we’ve done it.”

Haas says they “did their homework to better understand the origin of hammams and make sure we did it right. Not only is it a bathing ritual but it plays a significant social and cultural role in middle eastern countries.” Haas was determined to recreate that in Extell’s Lower East Side amenity-rich building One Manhattan Square.

Haute Residential has highlighted some of the best hammams in NYC and Miami's residential towers.

One Manhattan Square

One Manhattan Square’s hammam took inspiration from the 14th Century Ottoman Empire hammams and “interpreted that relaxation and ritual in modern way.” Haas explains, “We designed our hammam to meet busy lifestyle of our residents so you can do one or any combination of the four phases of the ritual.” There is an infrared sauna, a steam room, a cold plunge pool and a tranquility garden to end your relaxation in. If you want a traditional scrub down massage, you can order that service through the building.

Haas also explained their design reinterpreted the traditional hammams with modern mood lighting, heated benches (instead of cold, stone slabs) and private recessed stone chambers.

“When we do something, we raise the bar.”

Cast Iron House

Bridgestone Capital Assets CEO Jourdan Krauss, the developer of the Cast Iron House, says the Pritzker-Prize winning, traditional Japanese architect Shigeru Ban perfectly infused a contemporary aesthetic into their architecturally significant, historic building. With only 13 residents, the building does not have a lot of amenities but Krauss explains, “I wanted to build a hydrotherapy spa in this small boutique residence that would be a unique experience solely for the residents. We were not looking to compete with a massive spa experience or large gym.”

Krauss goes on to say, “New York City is a hectic, maddening city that moves at lightning speed. I wanted to create an experience for the residents that when they walk into the space, it is instant relaxation.  Residents can get out of their busy lives, out of the hustle and bustle of New York and go relax in a small environment they feel is very private. The hammam can fit 10-12 people but really think it will be an experience for one person or a couple to relax in.”

Krauss says their hammam was designed in the basement vault of the building, which is beautifully illuminated by the light that filters through the sidewalk’s transparent glass from two storeys, 30 feet above. The hammam includes three different water experiences, a steam room and a sauna, a plunge pool, shower, and a special waterfall shower. “This whole combination of something special and very aesthetically very unique down in the vaults of the castle.”

Jade Signature

The exquisite hamman at Jade Signature, developed by Fortune International Group and created by Pritzker Prize-winning architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron, blends with a Tata Harper Spa, the first ever in Florida, to deliver all-organic wellness.

“Jade Signature is such a natural partner for us to open our very first Tata Harper Spa in Florida,” said Harper in a press statement. “We created a space that feels coastal casual yet chic with our special Tata Harper touch in every detail. We believe our clients should never have to compromise between health and results, natural and luxurious, or beauty and intelligence."

Rendered in vibrant wood and green accents and reserved for residents and guests, the spa carries Harper's hallmark line of products and treatments, including a range of rejuvenating facials and a liquid gold organic body massage, which elevate the hammam experience. A sauna, a steam room, a water therapy terrace, a relaxation zone and a manicure and pedicure lounge complete the private, state-of-the-art relaxation features at Jade Signature.

49 Chambers

The Moroccan developers of 49 Chambers created a hammam as a core component of the building. Cast in honed white Ariel marble with a lustrous coved ceiling, 49 Chambers’ hammam offers a relaxing escape. This contemporary reinterpretation of ancient bathing rituals can be enjoyed with the adjacent steam room and sauna. The amenity is directly connected to the building’s pool.

Julie Dannenberg from Hundred Stories PR said, “People are looking for different things than they were looking for five years ago. Being able to come home to place where you can put down your phone and computer and enter into an amenity space that will leave you completely relaxed and rejuvenated was very important to the developers as it’s in keeping with their tradition.”

111 Murray

Wellness amenities are a priority at 111 Murray Street, as they highlight their connection with nature, providing an immersive, restorative experience. The hammam is the centerpiece of the spa area with heated, sculpted marble beds and carved sinks, bringing a modern touch to the traditional Turkish bath. There are also treatment rooms, saunas and a hair salon enhance the whole experience.
