The Mark
A 1920s haven, now with the city's largest suite
With its iconic black-and-white marble flooring, famed hairstylist Frédéric Fekkai’s salon on the premises, a Jean-Georges Vongerichten-helmed restaurant and the dexterity of a concierge for whom no challenge is too great, this Jacques Grange-designed property on 77th Street at Madison Avenue is a deco gem dating from 1927. It is ably overseen by French-born general manager Olivier Lordonnois and even has its own custom scent – Jurassic Flower, by master perfumer Frédéric Malle. The recent addition of a 16th- and 17th-floor penthouse, claimed to be the largest in the city at 1100sq m, gives the property an exclusive palatial residence beneath its distinctive copper roof, with 5-bedrooms, ballroom, showcase kitchen and roof terrace but the tip of this grandiose berg.
