This building is so under the radar, with so much going on in the city. Walked by the site yesterday and thought we had a new project under construction. Then I realized where I was (and saw the render).

RFR Holding together with its Chinese partners Vanke Holdings and China Cinda Asset Management secured $360 million to finance the development of their new luxury tower at 100 East 53rd Street.

Holliday Fenoglio Fowler arranged the funding from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, according to a press release. The building, which Aby Rosen’s RFR is co-developing with Hines, is located next to RFR’s Seagram Building on the corner of East 53rd Street and Lexington Avenue. HFF’s Mike Tepedino, Michael Gigliotti and director Jennifer Keller represented the borrowers.

The 61-story luxury tower at 100 East 53rd Street will include 94 residences. Starchitect Norman Foster’s Foster + Partners is designing the tower.
China Cinda paid $140.5 million for a majority stake in the project in March. China Vanke bought a stake in the building in 2014.

Aby Rosen’s luxury condominium at 100 East 53rd Street will have an average sales price of more than $4,000 per square foot, according to an offering plan filed with the Attorney General’s office.Located next to Rosen’s iconic Seagram Building, the 61-story tower will have 99 total units and a sellout of $761.8 million, including a $55 million penthouse, according to the offering plan, which was reviewed by The Real Deal.

According to the offering plan, which is yet to be approved, prices start at $3.3 million for a 1,140-square-foot one-bedroom on the fifth floor of the Norman Foster-designed tower. The most expensive unit is a duplex on the top two floors of the building, asking $55 million, or just over $8,100 per square foot. Another duplex, on floors 10 and 11, will ask $35 million, or just under $5,300 per square foot.

The building will also have 11 full-floor units, on floors 48 through 58. Measuring 3,385 square feet, they will start at $18.5 million, or just under $5,500 per square foot. Unit 58A will ask $22.6 million, nearly $6,700 per square foot.

After weathering years of delays, Rosen’s RFR Holding brought Hines and China Vanke, the largest publicly traded developer in China, on board as partners last year. In March, China Cinda paid $140.5 million for a majority stake in the project.
