Downtown Chic-Superior Ink
Where to live if you seek to combine a downtown lifestyle with some uptown polish? The Superior Ink is one of the few condominiums south of 14th Street to combine pedigree and ambiance. The pedigree comes from Robert A M Stern, the ambiance from the West Village location, and its proximity to the Hudson river.
This development came on the market at the height of the real estate boom and on the heels of another Stern design, 15 Central Park West, the most successful residential condominium in America. The Superior Ink building has sixty nine apartments and seven apartments. According to the sales person on site many of the units were combined into large homes priced in the mid seven figures.

As you can see from the image of the living room above, the scale is very grand, with high ceilings that are reminiscent of the great Park Avenue buildings and also the warehouse it replaced.
Lobby has a mid century feel.
So far sales have been brisk. Marc Jacobs has signed up for one of the townhouses and there is a rumor that Hilary Swank is in contract for a two bedroom apartment. That’s pretty good company, a two time Oscar winner and a world class designer of two major fashion labels.
Oh and most important it is Leed certified.
