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.
