Greenwich Club Residences

My wifey lives here, and when I visit her we always have the best time. Beautiful building, amazing views, spacious apartments with cool layouts. Historic meets modern. I will DEFINITELY be coming back ;)

Best apartment building in the city. The roof has a wonderful view as well as an indoor area with a TV and large dining table. Downstairs there is a billiards room with darts and a TV. Across from that is a library, with not only books but a nice piano. Most importantly, the staff is AMAZING!!!

This looks like a lovely building from the outside. However, when I stopped briefly in front of the building last week, I was subjected to street harassment by doorman Patrick McKay, who called me a «bitch,» repeated it when I acted surprised, told me he did not have to be nice to anyone except the residents of the building and challenged me to complain about the incident saying, «who are you going to complain to?» Step one: Unilocal.Stay away from any place that would employ a man like this to be the face of their establishment.

This is up there for one of the coolest apartment parties I have ever been to. The entrance in itself is a massive slab of dark mahogany engraved with an elaborate gothic curly-​q design. Black Marble Everywhere. Water fountain falling from the ceiling? Check. Elaborate chandeliers? Check. Floor to ceiling bookcase with baby grand piano in the lobby? Check. All accompanied by a roaring, possibly real fireplace. MAN. I want to live in the lobby of Greenwich Club. Anyway, its a great space for a medium sized gathering of folks. I can’t imagine things getting too crazy ever down here because it is very open to the public. People staying in the building were able to just flounce in and most of them were just intrigued and left. Also, notching it down because there are no public restrooms in the lobby. However, there is a roof top also available for renting out or using if a resident in the building. It probably is pretty neat-​o, but unfortunately didn’t get to check it out due to the rain. It’s fancy enough that the owner of the apartment that was hosting joked, «The apartments are terrible. No really, I have a midget that tears my toilet paper for me. But it’s not Peter Dinklage. He was too busy.»

Really beautiful apartment complex with 34 regular floors and a penthouse suite on the 35^th floor. The lobby is dark and sexy with some goth influences, lots of books in an area that looks like could be in a scene with Disney’s Beauty and the Beast when she sees the Beast’s awesome castle library., only this movie would have been directed by Tim Burton… beautiful, yet entertainingly dark.
The way apartments are laid out are almost hotel-​like with TONS of apartments per floor. When I came to a birthday party for a friend here, I learned that while their lobby gets regularly used for parties, events and gatherings there is no restroom accessible to public guests — with copious amounts of alcohol present my friend’s guests (and their guests, lol) had no choice but to use their apartment bathroom.
It was here where I learned that their (awesomely) decorated apartment (which my friend’s husband owns) has a weirdly sweet few of an unfinished building that’s currently in process of being built — I think it’s cool to see the inner workings and empty steel-​beam endoskeleton of a building being born — then again I also have a case of being weird every now and then and one of my friends thought this view was «ugly», to each their own :).
One star for now having a restroom nearby where events can be thrown. 4 stars for being dark and mysteriously beautiful, being close to the train (1 and R)…oh and for not being on Unilocal,thus me having to create it so that my friends and I could check in last night :).
