On the new development beat, Upper West Side edition: 535 West End, situated at West 86th Street, has been billing its massive full-floor units as "21st century pre-war residences" for awhile now. (It was a Development du Jour back in the heady days of spring 2008.) No need to mince words: the building is solid, complementing its neighbors well and somehow managing to capture some rays of the glory days of pre-war. In this economy, developer Extell has taken a gamble by dividing it into only 22 units. Regardless—spiky haircut aside—we're inclined to say this one's shaping up to beat the rendering.
