The luxury tower is called 96+ Broadway and units are expected to go on sale this summer.

The building's 23 stories will hold 131 condominium units that range from one to five-bedroom layouts.

The lavish amenities package includes a 75-foot indoor saltwater pool with wall-to-ceiling Hemlock wood paneling, a fitness center, squash and basketball courts, and a playroom for kids.

The building is designed by Thomas Juul-Hansen, who has overseen another luxury building on West 77th Street.

The 96th Street train station and the entrance to the West Side Highway make the intersection one of the busiest in the neighborhood.
