Situated in Midtown West, ARO demonstrates a keen awareness to its surrounding context, utilizing approaches in massing to create a contemporary urban living environment. At 62-stories, ARO responds to site and zoning constraints, revealing solutions that maximize floor area, outdoor access and views. A deceptively simple envelope provides a singular graphic that emphasizes the shifts in building form, visibly expressing its complex programmatic and structural challenges at a macro level. At the podium level, cascading layers of amenities with multilevel openings offers increased interaction.
