Details

The building has a slanted almost "house-like" roof compared with traditional, flat roofs found on many commercial buildings within the area. The top point is lit blue at night. This all makes the building a unique part of the skyline, especially at night.

The building's pool is elevated and overlooks central downtown. The pool has a tropical theme.

The building has multiple amenities and houses a convenience store and restaurant on the ground floor. The associated development across Church Street contains a piano bar and the Mad Cow Theatre complex.

In 2017 Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust (BREIT Mf 55 West LLC) purchased the building for $105,000,000 from TA Realty (Realty Associates Fund Ix Lp). The building is now managed by ZRS, Greystar managed the building for the previous owner.
