RPW Group Opens New Upscale Multifamily Community in White Plains
The transformation of the I-287 corridor into a multifamily residential community continued with the grand opening last week of BCW Member RPW Group’s latest project called The Halden. Located off I-287 at 1133 Westchester Avenue, The Halden features 303 upscale apartment homes.
The Halden comprises three, five-story apartment buildings with a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom units. Each apartment features quartz countertops, backlit bathroom mirrors, luxury plank flooring, sleek pendant lighting, stainless steel appliances, stacked tile showers and in-unit washers and dryers. Shared amenities include a club-style gym, pool, bike storage room, children’s playroom, package concierge, telecommuting spaces, and a courtyard with grilling stations for dining and relaxing.
The community’s rooftop hosts a photovoltaic solar panel installation generating over 500,000 kWh of clean electricity. Residents have the opportunity to purchase power generated on site at a discount to the standard market rate.
“Embarking on our first multifamily development journey with NRP, with support from our partners in White Plains city government, has been an extraordinary experience,” said Andrew Weisz, President of RPW Group at a ribbon-cutting ceremony held July 13 . “Together, we were able to expand the boundaries of what’s possible in White Plains and demonstrate what thoughtful in-fill development can do to make our city more transit-oriented, walkable, and sustainable, while improving the experience of our office tenants and creating a great experience for the residential residents we are welcoming to this beautiful community.”
“The Common Council and I are proud to celebrate the completion of The Halden,” said White Plains Mayor Tom Roach. “One of the most exciting features of this project is the inclusion of solar panels designed to generate clean energy, which directly aligns with the City of White Plains sustainability values. The collaboration between the NRP Group, RPW Group and the City of White Plains demonstrates how local governments can work with private entities to meet the unique needs of an emerging generation that requires a flexible lifestyle. Finally, this live-work-play development activates the site by providing quality housing for residents who want to reside in a desirable, dynamic, diverse, and sustainable city.”
The Halden is situated within a 70-acre site at 1133 Westchester Avenue and is adjacent to a 620,000-square-foot office building that was previously the world headquarters of IBM. RPW Group, which owns and operates this neighboring office, has made significant strides in transforming the site, including the addition of The Halden, into a mixed-use, walkable, transit-oriented neighborhood destination.
