Developer Adellco has launched sales at The Wales, a conversion of the former Hotel Wales that comprises 21 graciously sized luxury two- to five-bedroom residences in Manhattan’s vaunted Carnegie Hill enclave. With interiors by French firm Cabinet Alberto Pinto, the condominiums at The Wales feature herringbone oak flooring, Art Deco-inspired kitchen cabinetry, and an assortment of marbles, including Bianco Carrara and Grigio Nicole, that appear in the primary bathroom.
Sales launched at The Wales, an uber luxury condominium inside the former Hotel Wales, a historic New York hotel in Carnegie Hill. Pinto, France’s premier design firm founded by the late Alberto Pinto, designed the interiors of the residences and common spaces at the 10-story historic structure located at 1295 Madison Avenue (corner of 92nd & Madison). The neo-Renaissance facade circa 1899 was restored in the conversion from the former hotel.
A venerable Carnegie Hill hotel is getting its second life as…you guessed it, upscale condos. The landmarked Hotel Wales, to be simply known as The Wales, has officially begun sales on 21 graciously-scaled two- to four-bedroom residences. The Upper East Side’s ultra-luxury market has been going gangbusters as of late, as condos with grand layouts and faint traditional flourishes have been sought-after by the very-well-heeled.
A piece of New York City history is also one of its newest residential addresses.
The Wales, formerly the Hotel Wales, is a 10-story conversion project in the Carnegie Hill Historic District on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Paris-based Cabinet Alberto Pinto is behind the design of the condo building, with New York-based Adellco as the developer.
New York City is rife with glossy new builds—think supertalls like 111 W. 57th Street and 432 Park Ave.—so a more historic residential tower is a welcome change of pace. Those looking for something more old-school are in luck, as Robb Report has the exclusive first look of the interiors of the Wales, a new condominium building on the Upper East Side that dates back to the early 1900s.
