Historic architectural sensibility is at the heart of the design of 200 Amsterdam, a new residential building on Amsterdam Avenue. With classic Art Deco design details and a symmetrical Art Deco crown evoking New York’s best-loved buildings, 200 Amsterdam is also decidedly contemporary. Above the second floor, the building is a balance of glass, engineered stone, and metal that recalls Art Deco architecture while also creating the lighter appearance of a contemporary glass tower. Corner fenestration contributes to the building’s airy presence.
