Among the most head-turning structures leveraging cantilevers is Eastlight, at 501 Third Avenue in New York City. Designed by CetraRuddy, the 34-story condominium features a striking cantilevered design imbuing interiors with space, light and transparency. In the design by Nancy J. Ruddy, CetraRuddy founding principal, living rooms seem to be suspended off the building’s sides, imparting for occupants a sense of hovering in air.

In the wake of its spring sales launch, new Kips Bay luxury condominium tower Eastlight has just opened a new sales gallery on Park Avenue South with a view of the CetraRuddy-designed building. Centrally located near NoMad, Midtown and Murray Hill, Eastlight’s new-to-market Residence 10D is a south/west corner 1294-square-foot two-bedroom, two-bath that checks off all the boxes on your wish list, including outdoor space. Flooded with light, the spacious living room flows into a windowed dining alcove, and walks out onto a private terrace boasting city views. The luxuriously finished open kitchen makes entertaining a breeze, while the split bedroom layout provides for a sense of privacy.

Work is progressing on Eastlight, a 34-story, 388-foot-tall condominium building in Manhattan’s Kips Bay. Designed by CetraRuddy Architecture and developed by 200 East 34th LLC, which is listed as the owner on permits, the 135,094-square-foot project will yield 144 condominiums and 2,992 square feet of commercial space on the lower levels.

Manhattan seems to be shrinking, as a number of smaller-scale boutique buildings hit the market this season. But there’s a also group of notable, ambitious and larger scale properties launching right now. Here’s a look at what inside.

Eastlight, the tallest building in Manhattan’s Kips Bay neighborhood, has topped out at 34 stories. The 144-residence condominium tower was designed by CetraRuddy Architecture and features amenities on the building’s top floor to maximize access to views.

Eastlight, the new 34-story condominium rising in Midtown East’s Kips Bay neighborhood, celebrated its topping off last week with a nod to its flowery past. On February 22, George Washington’s birthday, a rose bush was raised on the hoist of the tower, commemorating when the founding father was presented with a few of the Rosa gallica from Jacobus Hendrickson Kip’s garden.
