WHERE EVERY DETAIL TELLS A STORY
“AT 18W55, WE SET OUT TO CREATE SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY—A BUILDING THAT SPEAKS THE TIMELESS LANGUAGE OF FIFTH AVENUE WHILE INTRODUCING A NEW CHAPTER IN REFINED RENTAL LIVING.”
by Morris Adjimi Morris Adjimi Architects
Designed by Morris Adjmi Architects, 18W55 is a balance of classic and contemporary design—rooted in a sensitivity to scale, materiality, and rhythm. With its limestone and bronze exterior palette, the building draws inspiration from the rich architectural tradition of Fifth Avenue. Warm natural woods and brass accents set a welcoming atmosphere throughout the building, while marble, travertine, and stone details evoke timeless elegance. In the residences, open and airy layouts are bathed in natural light with custom finishes that offer an elegant backdrop for daily life. Kitchens are well-appointed with custom lacquered cabinetry and brass pulls, while the bathrooms are bright and airy with refined proportions and tactile textures. Each amenity is crafted as a reflection of its environment—sunlit fitness studios that energize and uplift, sleek and sophisticated lounge spaces, stylish golf havens that invite relaxation, and a co-working suite that inspire focus.
SPACIOUS BY DESIGN
Graciously proportioned and thoughtfully finished, each residence is designed to welcome natural light through oversized windows and ceilings up to nine feet. The interiors strike a refined balance between traditional and contemporary sensibilities, expressed through timeless materials and elegant detailing. Engineered white oak flooring extends throughout the open layouts, while in-home washers and dryers provide a seamless layer of everyday convenience. Many residences are complemented by expansive terraces, seamlessly blending indoor comfort with tranquil outdoor entertaining.
THE ART OF LIVING
A SPACE TO SAVOR
Gather, cook, and entertain in kitchens where crafted materials and refined details come together in harmony. Custom Italian cabinetry in tonal lacquered finishes is accented by brass hardware, setting a sophisticated tone. Panelized Bosch appliances and integrated pantry millwork provide seamless functionality, while solid Cambria quartz countertops and backsplashes offer a refined surface that balances quality and style.
THE BEAUTY OF BALANCE
Bright and beautifully finished, the bathrooms and powder rooms are designed to feel serene. Primary bathrooms feature marble walls and floors, satin nickel fixtures, and custom oak vanities with ample storage, creating a spa-like atmosphere. Illuminated mirrors and quartz countertops complete the refined design.
