December 1, 2010 – New York, New York, USA – Last week following the Thanksgiving holiday, Extell Development Company officially opened The Aldyn on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. This much anticipated and highly publicized 40-story addition to Extell’s luxury living portfolio redefines the standard for lifestyle-enhancing amenities. The 286-residence waterfront new construction on Riverside Boulevard overlooks the Hudson River and boasts New York City’s largest and arguably finest residential athletic club.
The architectural firm of record for The Aldyn is Costas Kondylis and Partners LLP, with Roman and Williams responsible for the interior design. Inspiri Wellness contributed to the design, development, equipment procurement/installation, and launch coordination of the 40,000-square-foot-plus Aldyn Athletic Club and Spa. This one-of-a-kind jewel affords a scope of offerings and services unlike any other, and has been described as the ultimate urban sporting experience. The fitness amenity itself is a breathtaking combination of 5-star resort appointments and finishes, coupled with Olympic Training Center caliber strength, conditioning, and rehabilitation equipment. Within this ultra-inspiring fitness center are housed four private studios, individually dedicated to Pilates, Kinesis, Spinning, and Yoga. All of this is complimented by a 75-foot pool, 38-foot rock climbing wall, full-size basketball and squash courts, two-lane bowling alley, golf simulator, game room, lounge, 24-hour auxiliary gym, private spa treatment rooms, men’s and women’s locker rooms, sauna, and steam rooms.
Joe Montano, Senior Vice President and Director of Construction for Extell Development, stated: “The Athletic Club and Spa at The Aldyn has been without question our grandest amenity venture to date and to my knowledge the largest ever undertaken residentially in New York City. Given the scale and complexity of this project, use of the term over-delivering would have seemed impossible during its conception. Succinctly put, Inspiri over-delivered. Throughout the entire process every ‘I’ has been dotted, each ‘t’ crossed. Truly an indescribably beautiful finished product.”
