The balcony units take advantage of the setbacks. The tower will top out in 3 months.

I'm drooling looking at these floor plans and renderings. But it makes me think of something. If you're on one of the top floors, and drunkenly enter the stairwell from your unit, would you have to walk 1,000 feet down to the lobby just to hop back on the elevator?

You can see some "hidden" floor plans as well on the website. Most are duplicates, but these are some unique ones:
The unit with a double height living area: http://111w57.com/content/themes/111...Tower%2061.pdf Nice unit with outdoor space, probably the one I'd pick as a billionaire: http://111w57.com/content/themes/111...wer%20PH76.pdf As they get higher the usable space on the south side gets awkward: http://111w57.com/content/themes/111...wer%20PH80.pdf |
^^The drunken stumble/locked stairwell concern is actually not unfounded. I imagine the units above and below your own would be locked, unlike many office buildings where you can go in and out of the stairwells somewhat freely. So unless the doors have keypad incase you forget your keys, you're in for a 1,000 foot trek to the ground floor. Or a blow through floor.
Thanks nyc_alex for posting those links. The floorplans show observatories along with drawings of telescopes. What a classy development. Can you imagine owning a 1,200' observatory? Only in New York! |
I imagine the stairwell will have phones as well for calling the front desk. That said, how drunk would you have to be to get lost in your own home and go into a stairwell. Maybe a guest? It isn't a unique problem to this building, though.

I'm trying to figure out how the "private elevator" works? They all seem to be in the same location in the building, all with direct access to each unit. What's to stop somebody riding the elevator accessing your apartment? Or at least looking into it as you get off? There does seem to be a major privacy concern to me.

You typically enter from the elevator directly into the residence reception hall. Nowadays they use laser scanners for security, and guests are allowed in by doorman override. No neighbor will ever see your residence unless you allow them. |

I'm sure it's somewhat normal but I still wouldn't feel completely secure. I'd like to have it separated into a small foyer room that I could lock off and bypass. |

^That's not as unusual as you might think.
