The Avery
Soaring 618 feet into the San Francisco skyline, the sculpted glass Avery tower is home to tony two- and three-bedroom condominiums, all bathed in natural light and panoramic city and Bay views through floor-to-ceiling windows. Designed by Rem Koolhaas' Pritzker Prize-winning firm Office of Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) along with Clodagh Design, floor plans have an eco-conscious aesthetic and exude a sense of serenity and wellness. Expect gourmet kitchens with wine storage; spa-inspired bathrooms clad in warm wood and cool marble; polished chrome Dornbracht fixtures; custom oak cabinetry; mosaic tiles. On floors 53 and 56, the penthouses are extra opulent with stone fireplaces, great rooms, formal dining spaces, master suites with dual walk-in closets and soaking tubs; and some even have rooftop patios. Whether you're on top of the world or live on a lower floor, you'll have access to valet parking, the gym, pool, entertainment lounges, and an attended private lobby.
