Major cities never have just one look, but in the past 15 years, thanks to a legion of the world’s most renowned architects, skylines all over the world have changed more than any other time in history.

In honor of the second edition of Elle Decor’s list of the greatest living architects, over 75 A-List designers, architects, and leading real estate brokers joined editor in chief Whitney Robinson and SVP of Extell Development Joaquin Stearns for a special celebration with a private look inside the sales gallery of what is soon to be the world’s tallest residential building, Central Park Tower.

In attendance at the A-List Architecture event were Ellie Cullman, Suzanne Kasler, Miles Redd, David Kaihoi, Joe Nahem, Bill Sofield, Peter Pennoyer, John Meeks, Jim Aman, Alyssa Kapito, James Huniford, Jesse Carrier, William Brockschmidt, Courtney Coleman and Russell Groves.

Guests enjoyed a Central Park Tower ice sculpture with signature drink “A-List on the Rocks”, custom verses by master haiku builders The Haiku Guys + Gals, music by resident DJ Elle Dee, and LEGO Architecture sets that were gifted to all.
