The Midtown rentals at 555TEN have a number of outdoor oases on the doorstep: the sprawling banks of Hudson River Park, verdant rooftop bars like Vue180 and Gallow Green— plus, of course, the Hamptons are just a couple of hours’ drive away. But for those lazy summer days when you don’t want to venture far at all, 555TEN’s on-site amenities have you covered.

Taking a Dip

The jewel in the crown of these luxury Midtown rentals has to be its rooftop pool. Here, 56 stories up, you can begin your morning, wind down your evening—or while away an entire Sunday afternoon—in the cooling alfresco waters. South-west facing, the pool gets glorious sunshine for the best part of the day, and its unobstructed views provide unrivaled glimpses of the Hudson—its piers and parks—and the New Jersey skyline beyond. There’s ample room to swim proper lengths, and the kink at one end of the pool provides somewhere to sit back, relax, and soak up the views.

Sunning Yourself

Chaise lounges are liberally scattered poolside—an ideal spot to sip an iced coffee and devour a few chapters of a summer blockbuster. There are stylishly appointed private cabanas too—so when it’s time to seek shade, it’s ready and waiting. Our top tip: come up here for a sunset nightcap and see Manhattan glow in remarkable pinks, purples, and ambers.

Working Alfresco

However balmy the weather might be, sometimes we’ve still got to work. At these Midtown NYC apartments, you can still bask in the summer rays while hosting video calls with clients, catching up on emails, or poring over contracts. While 555TEN’s residents’ lounge provides an elegant midcentury-inspired space to work year-round, its greenery-ensconced terrace is a shoo-in for the summer season. Tables, chairs, and lounge seating invite you to get comfortable with your laptop—and every time you glance up from your screen, you’re greeted with cinematic views from 56 floors up. Now that’s what we call working from home.

Going for Walkies

When temperatures soar, and even a stroll in the park feels a bit of a stretch, simply take your four-legged friend to one of 555TEN’s two dedicated dog runs. Here, your beloved pooch can let off steam in a safe (and cool) environment; though fully covered and enclosed, the dog runs are also open to the elements, meaning you and your furry pal get your fix of fresh air. It’s also a great spot to meet new dog/human friends!
