The new shimmering glass-and-steel structure rises 349 feet in height with floor-to-ceiling windows; horizontal balcony planes and glass guardrails are intersected by vertical elements to a rooftop cornice.
Amenities include a Jr. Olympic size pool, a 2,500 square foot state-of-the-art fitness center with an outdoor yoga deck, lobby, and an alfresco lounge with fire pits and an on-site cafe.
