One West End is, per public records, "large and exquisitely detailed, and possibly over-detailed" — a structurally distinctive Pelli Clarke Pelli mixed-use complex with one of the most iconic architectural gestures in 2010s NYC residential development. architectural records's signature description: "very slick and elegant, bifurcated glass towers with slanted roofs sitting on, and partially sinking into, an irregular limestone base with a huge spear of diagonal braces stuck into its lower midriff that cantilevers significantly over the sidewalk."
The building carries the Pelli Clarke Pelli architectural pedigree, which places One West End within a substantial international tradition of the firm's work. That pedigree resolves into a single unmistakable move — the diagonal-cantilever architectural gesture, where exposed diagonal bracing carries the 26-story north component 50 feet beyond the low-rise base and 70 feet above West End Avenue. The same geometry shapes the amenity program below grade, anchored by a 75-foot lap pool with dramatic diagonal columns on the lowest level, where the lower component's glass facade "cuts" into the top floor of the limestone base.
architectural records's mixed verdict: "It is a scrumptious, gee-whiz building but did anyone involved with this project hear of restraint? Huh?"
