July 3, 2014

Roof decks, concierge services, screening rooms–these building amenities are so last year. The newest crop of luxury residential developments are offering more active perks. From basketball courts to rock-climbing walls, these calorie-burning features not only alleviate the need for a gym membership, but also offer the convenience of around-the-clock access and the ease of being just an elevator ride away from home.

The Adlyn, NYC luxury buildings, 60 Riverside Boulevard, new NYC developments

The Aldyn, a 40-story Upper West Side tower located at 60 Riverside Boulevard, was built in 2010 and has stunning Hudson River views and resort-like amenities. Its 136 condo units have access to the 40,000-square-foot athletic club and spa managed by NYC health center gurus LA PALESTRA. This massive health retreat boasts a 75-foot indoor pool, hot tub, basketball and squash courts, bowling alley, golf simulator, and rock-climbing wall. And while mom and dad enjoy their time in the Romand and Williams-designed athletic center, the youngsters can hang out in the KIDVILLE-designed indoor playground.

Seven apartments are currently for sale in the Aldyn, including an 839-square-foot, 1BR/1BA apartment listed at $1.3 million, and a 2,207-square-foot, 3BR/4BA apartment with an asking price of $5.5 million.
