PHOTOS: Explore the interiors and views of One57's most expensive apartment

Some New Yorkers see One57 as the start of a shining new era, but others see it as a symptom of all that is wrong with the city's contemporary architecture and wealth gap. Either way, it is impossible to ignore. While incoming supertalls like 111 West 57th Street and Central Park Tower are poised to outstrip it in height, One57 will never be completely thrown into shadow. The 1,004-foot-high building designed by Pritzker Prize laureate Christian de Portzamparc came to define Billionaires’ Row and set new standards for luxury real estate both outside and in.

Even a relatively low-level one-bedroom at One57 looks out on beautiful skyline and Central Park vistas, but #87, a full-floor, 6,243-square-foot residence, enjoys some of New York's best views from north, south, east, and west exposures. The four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home has just been listed with Compass for $58.5 million, the most expensive unit in the building.
