Distinctive Gold Coast Property Will Be the First Collaboration with YOO By Starck in New Jersey
CLIFFSIDE PARK, N.J. 02/20/07
More than 200 prospective buyers and brokers packed Frank’s Restaurant in North Bergen on Feb. 15 for the unveiling of Pinnacle Downtown’s Aurora Over the Hudson, which will introduce the firm headed by internationally acclaimed designer Philippe Starck, YOO by Starck, for the first time on the New Jersey Gold Coast. YOO by Starck, which has brought design-focused development to more than 8,000 apartments throughout the world, including in London, Sydney and the Far East will design the development’s signature elements, such as the resident club areas and reception lobbies, as well as the home layouts, kitchens and baths. Pinnacle Downtown, a subsidiary of Chatham-based The Pinnacle Companies, has partnered with Kohl Partners and Craftex on this landmark new condominium community in Cliffside Park and recently announced the launch of a new Web site where buyers can get more information and see each of the distinctive floor plans at www.auroraoverthehudson.com.
While there was interest in Aurora before sales officially began, the turnout on Feb. 15 was overwhelming, Pinnacle representatives said.
“The floodgates have opened and the response has been incredible with almost 20 homes sold before we begin. Philippe Starck’s name is synonymous with world-class design and people clearly want to be a part of that here,” commented Mary Boorman, Pinnacle’s senior vice president for marketing and strategic planning. “Aurora will set a new standard for luxury living on the Gold Coast, and we are thrilled to have the world-renowned design of YOO By Starck create many of Aurora’s signature elements.”
The 131 residences in the Aurora Towers will provide the experience of penthouse living on every floor on a scale unmatched on the Gold Coast. All of the two- and three-bedroom residences will feature YOO by Starck designed kitchens and bathrooms offering the latest in sleek European elegance with fine cabinetry and Viking appliances, signature faucets, free-standing baths and vessels on stone counter tops. The homes also feature floor-to-ceiling windows, private terraces, individually controlled heating and cooling systems and hardwood flooring in the living and master bedroom areas. Many of these features -- which are considered upgrades at many condominium communities -- are considered standard at Aurora. Some residences also offer fireplaces, dens and family areas off the kitchen.
The homes will also feature state-of-the-art technology, including personal electronic concierge interface; in-home wireless Internet access; multiple telephone lines; interactive communication with security; and fiber-optic integrated outlets for Internet, telephone, cable and networked computer systems.
