Forkosh Development announced today that closings have commenced at Hillrose28, a boutique collection of 43 condominium residences located at the corner of 28th Street and Third Avenue. The 20-story building, which is a contemporary interpretation of classic New York City architecture, is now over 40% sold.
On the heels of the building’s sales success, Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group is now introducing Penthouse 1, a four-bedroom and four-bathroom duplex for $10,995,000. Penthouse 1 spans 3,114 square feet and boasts expansive, 360-degree views of Manhattan’s iconic skyline, including One World Trade Center, the Empire State Building, and the Chrysler Building. Uniquely, the home has four separate private outdoor spaces; two balconies that wrap around the entire West side of the residence and two additional terraces located off of the bedroom and living room. The open-plan kitchen features direct views of the Empire State Building and is custom-designed by Andres Escobar with Scavolini oak cabinets and brushed nickel hardware, as well as accent cabinets with ribbed and etched glass. The kitchen also includes statuary marble slab countertops and a Bosch appliance package. The primary bath is clad in Bianco Dolomite Italian marble with a Grigio Nicola marble accent wall and includes a custom-designed stained oak vanity with polished nickel fixtures and a Toto cast-iron soaking tub.
“We are both the general contractor and the developer and we only work on one project at a time. This allows us to deliver a superior product with meticulous attention to detail over the past 40 years, which has resonated with buyers,” explained Alex Forkosh, founder of Forkosh Development.
Designed by Lemay + Escobar Architecture D.P.C, Hillrose28 layouts are reminiscent of the grandeur of pre war-era apartments with gracious interiors featuring wide-plank white oak flooring throughout. The striking limestone exterior is designed by C3D Architecture and features oversized casement windows that allow each home to be filled with natural light. Over half of the residences offer significant private outdoor space. Residences also feature the latest in energy saving technology, including LED lights throughout and a state-of-the-art HVAC and ventilation system. The exterior walls are also heavily insulated along with windows designed by Schuco International to provide sound attenuation and temperature control.
All residents enjoy access to a curated suite of amenities that offer an extension of the home. Among the array of amenities is a 2,000 square foot landscaped roof terrace and bar; residents’ lounge with fireplace, co-working table, Scavolini kitchen and wet bar; 24-hour duplex gym with bright wood flooring and natural light with dedicated weight and cardio rooms as well as Peloton bikes; commercial grade laundry facilities; and bike storage.
Situated in the center of the Rose Hill neighborhood and surrounded by NoMad, Murray Hill, and Gramercy, the building is just steps away from the city’s premier dining, shopping, and sightseeing destinations.
“The premium prices we have been able to achieve at Hillrose28, including homes sold over $2,500 PSF, are more in line with Gramercy, Nomad and Flatiron neighborhoods,” said Tricia Hayes Cole, Executive Managing Director of Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group. “By delivering a fantastic building, our buyers recognize that this location is joining the ranks of premium downtown neighborhoods.”
One- to four-bedroom residences are priced from $1.095 million up to $10.995 million. Hillrose28 is exclusively represented by Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group.
