The new MiMA luxury residence is part of Related Company’s $800 million, 1.2 million square foot, 60 story LEED-Silver complex, which also includes the Yotel Times Square West (which Rockwell Group also designed) and a Frank Gehry designed Signature Theatre. MiMA is named for its central location in Midtown Manhattan, and is a LEED silver building with 663 rental units, 151 condo units, separate rental and condo lobbies, and a shared amenities floor and field house. For the rental portion of the building, Rockwell Group designed a series of playful and fun ‘mixing’ spaces. The condo lobby is a sophisticated and elegant to reflect the more intimate nature of the space.
The amenities floor on the third level boasts an indoor/outdoor dog play area and grooming space, 2 party rooms with private terraces, and a member’s only club, where twisted wood fin screens are used throughout the space to give privacy and intimacy to separate spaces, yet retain a fluid sense of openness throughout. There is a private health club elevator that travels from the 3rd floor to the Basketball City space in the sub-cellar field house – the leather stitching in the elevator mimics the materials of a basketball so that the experience begins before you step into the lower level.
