25 North Lex

25 North Lex will create one of the densest developments in White Plains.

25 North Lex is a new 500-unit residential project just a short walk from the White Plains train station in Westchester County, NY. The project will create one of the densest developments in the city of White Plains.

The development includes two perpendicular volumes that intersect one another on a full block site. The taller of the two towers, at 25-stories, runs parallel with North Lexington Avenue, as well as the White Plains train station, a couple of blocks away. This tower is clad in glass and light metal panels, folded in a chevon pattern to give the facade a sense of depth. The two narrow ends of the tower are all-glass, and will offer these units great views to north and south. The southernmost face of the building marks the residential entrance at the corner of Hamilton and North Lexington.

The shorter volume sits atop a parking podium that includes 17,000 sq. ft. of retail on Hamilton and Ferris Avenues. The podium is clad in folded metal panels, suggesting a sense of movement to those passing to and from the train station. The panels peel up on the southwest corner to reveal a double height space, reaffirming the connection between the pedestrian corridor on Hamilton Avenue and the train station.

Above the podium, the second tower stands 16-stories, and pierces through the taller one to the east. This volume is also clad in metal panels which visually tie it to the podium below. The narrow ends of this tower are also all-glass, creating enormous urban windows to downtown White Plains.

The building will offer a rich amenity program, including a fitness center, yoga studio, work from home spaces, a conference room, private dining room, sports lounge, game room, children’s playroom, and a dog spa. Exterior amenities are distributed between the 5th and 17th floor amenity decks and include a lap pool, sunbathing areas, outdoor grills, lawns for outdoor activities, and community gardens.
