- 2008
70 Little West Street (The Visionaire) is NYC's first LEED Platinum-certified condominium — Pelli Clarke Pelli's 2008 design for the Albanese Organization extending the developer's Battery Park City sustainable residential portfolio launched with The Solaire (2003).
The structural identity rests on three features. First, the first-LEED-Platinum-condo-in-NYC institutional pedigree. Second, the curved facade with red terra cotta horizontal bands — structurally distinguishing among 2008-era NYC residential. Third, the skylit indoor pool — uncommon at the Battery Park City condominium scale.
