A few months after the latest renderings were revealed, sales have quietly launched at The Treadwell. We have not set a date for live listings, but the first availabilities start at $1.7 million for one-bedrooms, $2.325 million for two-bedrooms, and $3.95 million for three-bedrooms. Move-ins are expected to begin in 2024; in the meantime, CityRealty's experts are on hand for the latest availabilities.

Plans for The Treadwell date back to 2016, when a skyscraper designed by Rafael Vinoly was proposed for the site. After renderings of a building featuring a hollow octagonal core were revealed, some locals came out against the “building on stilts.” However, this particular project was ultimately halted between fire safety concerns and the closing of the mechanical void loophole that would have allowed for this building’s soaring height.

The most recent renderings show an Art Deco-inspired design by INC Architecture & Design, a bronze and terra cotta facade, and a base that appears in harmony with its low-rise, historic neighbors while allowing for the soaring height and private terraces the modern buyer appreciates. The Treadwell is located just outside the Treadwell Farms Historic District, but pays respectful tribute to its neighbors with the design.

It is also located on a tree-lined street close to some of the city's top medical institutions, including Lenox Hill Hospital, Hospital for Special Surgery, New York Presbyterian-Weill Cornell Medical Center, and Rockefeller University Hospital. Indeed, an emphasis on wellness comes through in The Treadwell's amenities: Not only does the second floor house a state-of-the-art fitness center as well as a sauna and steam room, but residents receive a complimentary one-year membership to concierge medicine group Sollis Health. Offering everything from 24-hour virtual visits to in-home treatment to expert care coordination, it has been described as "an ER that treats you like a VIP."

Area attractions also include Bloomingdale’s, popular restaurants and bars, and a Trader Joe’s outpost that has been described as the city’s most beautiful supermarket. Transportation options include the Lexington Avenue/63rd Street F and Q trains, the 59th Street 4/5/6 and N/R/W trains, and the Roosevelt Island tramway. Additionally, new condos like Archive Lofts, The Leyton, The Clare, and 200 East 59th Street have risen on surrounding blocks in recent years.
