Roseland Ballroom-replacing Midtown skyscraper now looks like its renderings
Curbed checks in with construction at ARO, the sleek tower that looks more like its renderings every day. The 62-story tower, which rises from the former site of the Roseland Ballroom on West 52nd Street between 7th and 8th Avenues, features a glass facade wrapped in a white composite-metal lattice with private terraces curving out from the corners. Inside, the no-fee Midtown West apartments range in size from studios to a duplex penthouse and feature 10-foot-high ceilings that bathe the interiors in natural light. Residents will love the oak floors, spa-inspired master baths with walk-in showers, and washer/dryers in each home._
