NEW YORK—You know your building hits the spot if the architect decides to move in. Enrique Norton, architect for One York, is now a resident after designing this luxury condo with developer Stan Perelman.

“We were able to really develop a nice friendship and he is now living in the building—which is testament to the building,” Perelman said. “I think he designed a beautiful building.”

For lovers of light and space, One York is a true masterpiece. One York is Norten’s first residential effort in Manhattan and in finalizing the design he made 150 little models of the building.

“It was a constant process,” Perelman said. “I kept pushing the architect—‘add more floors, let’s figure out a way to still make the apartments work and we can add two more floors.’”
