Offering iconic views of the East River and Chrysler Building, residents can find serenity without sacrificing convenience in East Midtown’s The Summit. The tower’s “public face” is set back from the street, where a circular motor court establishes an elevated and elegant tone as residents arrive at the project. The ground level includes a reflecting basin and its accompanying sculpture. A 100-foot wall of split-faced stone and plant pockets complement the clean, modernist language established at the motor court. The 4th-floor amenity terrace expands the lounge lifestyle into the outdoors. Planters, pools, a lounge bar, and surrounding terraces are arranged into “rooms” that align with the facade geometry. In the evenings, a dramatic light program extends the view from the interior lounge, crafting a sense of space beyond the facade’s glass.
