Construction update: FXFOWLE’s Circa Central Park nears the finish line
Last we heard from Circa Central Park, the circle-hugging Central Park north condo from architects FXFOWLE and developers Artimus, the lottery had launched for 10 affordable units in the building. Seven months later, with occupancy slated for this year and nearly all apartments sold, CityRealty stopped by the Harlem site to check on construction. They’ve shared some great views of the nearly-completed glass, metal, and brick facade, which utilizes “a brise soleil system of horizontal louvers and vertical fins” to reduce solar gain and add depth to the structure by highlighting them in bright colors.
In addition to the 10 affordable units, the 11-story, 140-foot building has 38 market-rate apartments that range from just over $1 million for one-bedrooms to a $8.7 million five-bedroom with a terrace overlooking the park. Only seven units remain, and they feature oak flooring, open floor plans, custom Italian cabinetry and quartz counters in the kitchens, floor-to-ceiling windows, lavish marble bathrooms, washer/dryer combos, and in many units, cascading terraces.
The amenity package is quite generous, offering a 3,000-square-foot landscaped courtyard, fitness center, on-site parking with electric charing stations, a rooftop terrace with grills, and kids’/teen room with Macs and game stations.
As CityRealty describes, the building “is both respectful to its contexts and provides an optimistic and refreshing outlook for its storied neighborhood.” It’s aiming for LEED Silver certification. See all available listings for Circa Central Park here>>
