Building: Platinum

If you want a luxury home right in the heart of Midtown, the Platinum at 247 West 46th Street and 8th Avenue is the place to call home.

This dramatic 43-story condominium development is steps away from Times Square, the striking New York Times building and within walking distance to Broadway, Rockefeller Center and world-class restaurants, grocers and cafes. For a central location seconds away from numerous commuter and public transit, The Platinum is ultra-luxury, commercial-free Manhattan real estate in the most vibrant section of New York City.

The exterior is steel and glass, appearing as a sleek, glimmering skyscraper with unparalleled city views and amenities and interiors that rival five-star world resorts. Its lobby introduces the sophisticated elegance of the luxury homes within; a floating island is surrounded by a moat of moving water, a 26-foot long fireplace and 15’ plasma screens that play “mood-enhancing videos, 24/7.

Residents enjoy “The Zone,” a full-floor dedicated a host of upscale amenities. There’s The Recovery Zone, a zen-like room containing body massage chairs with access to a soothing video and/or audio experience. The Fitness Center is expansive with state-of-the-art LifeFitness equipment. In addition, there’s indoor/outdoor Yoga studios, spa treatment rooms and spa lounge with waterfall as well as a golf simulation room.
