There are residences designed to impress.
And there are residences designed to endure.
Occupying the entire fourth floor of the Orchid Building at Albany, The Admiral's Residence is a rare full-floor sanctuary conceived by internationally acclaimed Morris Adjmi Architects -- a residence where architecture, craftsmanship, and engineering converge.
Encompassing approximately 8,000 square feet of living space, this is not a developer's interpretation of luxury. It is a private commission.
German-engineered millwork, precision stainless detailing, and bespoke yacht-inspired automated interior doors reflect a level of craftsmanship more commonly found aboard a superyacht than within a condominium. Every element speaks to permanence, precision, and discretion.
Expansive living and entertaining spaces frame layered marina and ocean views, while the primary suite commands a private position overlooking the water. A chef's kitchen support effortless hosting. Wellness and retreat are integral to the design, with a private massage room, jacuzzi, beauty salon, and a custom, state-of-the-art private cinema engineered for immersive viewing.
Unlike the newer buildings rising within Albany, this residence offers something increasingly rare: absolute privacy. No shared walls. No neighboring floors. A full level devoted entirely to one owner.
Originally offered at $29 million, The Admiral's Residence is now presented at $13,850,000 -- a compelling opportunity to acquire one of Albany's only architect-designed, full-floor penthouses at a substantial discount to replacement cost and below prevailing per-square-foot pricing within the community.
For the buyer who understands architecture.
For the collector who values individuality over trend.
For the yachtsman who recognizes precision.
This is not simply a penthouse.
It is a private deck in the sky --
and one of Albany's most distinctive residences.
