In the New York condominium market, private outdoor space ranks among the most sought-after amenities of all. Buyers of flats in Manhattan have placed an increasing priority on sheltered outdoor areas for years. A new residential development in the NoMad neighbourhood is now firmly placing this requirement at the centre of its architectural concept.
Under the name The Loggia NoMad, a 28-storey residential building inspired by Manhattan's classic Art Deco style is rising at 842 Sixth Avenue. The project is backed by development companies Pro H Group and Vara Holdings, which have officially commenced off-plan sales for the residential units.
Architectural focus on sheltered outdoor spaces
The tower takes its name from its defining architectural feature: loggias provide future residents with a sheltered open-air retreat. Unlike cantilevered balconies, loggias are structurally integrated into the building envelope, thereby offering protection from wind and weather without sacrificing the connection to the city skyline.
The developers are thus responding to a structural shift in the prime segment. While outdoor spaces in Manhattan's densely built street grid have traditionally been reserved primarily for penthouses, The Loggia NoMad is characterised by a wide distribution of private outdoor access across the various levels of the 28-storey tower.

The scheme by Pro H Group and Vara Holdings adds another striking residential tower to this setting.
