Given its proximity to Central Park, it's not really difficult to understand why the Galleria is one of the most sought-after residential addresses in Midtown Manhattan. Renowned architect David Kenneth Specter designed this striking building at 117 East 57th Street, and his bold designs make the Galleria almost impossible to ignore. Living at the Galleria promises to be a very pleasing experience, with the homes here featuring several desirable characteristics like large windows, high ceilings and roofed balconies. The Galleria also offers several useful amenities, including a full-time doorman and concierge, an eight-story atrium and a sky terrace lounge on the 55th floor.
