Rockefeller Center is an masterpiece Art Deco complex, constructed during the Great Depression—a symbol of America’s perseverance. Rose Hill is an inspired Art Deco condominium currently under construction in Manhattan during a period of economic prosperity. May their legacies be intertwined, if developer Rockefeller Group has its way.

Rockefeller Group was founded more than 90 years ago to develop Rockefeller Center, the 22-acre complex comprising 14 Art Deco buildings, including landmarks 30 Rockefeller Plaza (“30 Rock”) and Radio City Music Hall. Now, the developer returns to its 20th century roots, crowning a new 30 Rock-inspired architectural jewel in New York City—gifting Manhattan’s skyline for another century.

“We are so excited to unveil Rose Hill and feel now is the right time and the right place for residences with this kind of authentic New York attitude and architectural distinction,” says Meg Brod, Rockefeller Group senior vice president. “Rose Hill is our return to our roots, to Manhattan, where we’re developing a project that can represent our legacy and stand the test of time, while benefiting from the enduring appeal of NoMad.”

When completed, Rose Hill will rise 45 stories above the NoMad district, blocks north of Madison Square Park—a former military parade ground near where some believe American-style baseball originated in the 1840s (sorry Cooperstown and Hoboken).

Rose Hill will offer 123 apartments, priced from nearly $1.2 million and up.

Like Rockefeller Center, Rose Hill boldly embraces its Art Deco DNA. Designed by architecture firm CetraRuddy, the building’s ornamental bronze-toned façade, intricate detailing and large glass windows will beautify a historic neighborhood that was once part of the 130-acre Rose Hill Farm estate. As an homage to classic New York skyscrapers, decorative lighting will illuminate Rose Hill’s base and crown, showcasing the tower’s distinctive articulation as a brilliant skyline gem.

Though rooted in yesteryear, the soaring 600-foot-tall luxury high rise will appeal to the future—to the next generation of Manhattan homeowners—as a modern, “urban resort” with 123 residences, private outdoor areas, in-home flex spaces and club-style amenities designed around active lifestyles and social engagement.

Rose Hill residences are designed for contemporary urban living. Via texturized sliding glass doors, flex room homes allow some residents to personalize specific spaces based on their changing needs (be it a nursery, study or library). Some ceilings soar beyond 13 feet, framing the dramatic Manhattan skyline.
