A triptych of luxury high rises in Manhattan, each designed by a different famous architect, will take the same approach inside—where three designers will create interiors to fit each building’s distinct facade.
The developer of Waterline Square, a set of three unique, glass condominiums between West 59th Street and West 61st Street overlooking the Hudson River, has unveiled the first renderings that depict how the three towers will look inside and identified the project’s three interior designers exclusively to Mansion Global. Each building will offer condos in two different finishes.

All three of the condominiums, which will be built simultaneously, will offer views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.
