Sheffield57 looked like the total package -- or at least like an Upper West Side condo development to watch -- for awhile back there. There was a prime location near Columbus Circle, at 322 West 57th Street and all the attendant goodnesses -- access to shopping, subway hub, Central Park, and so on -- that come with that. There was the condo itself, which delivered everything you'd expect from an Upper West Side luxury condo. But there was also the fact that Sheffield57 had very serious money problems. Sheffield57 halted condo sales in May of 2009, and the original developer wound up selling the property at auction. But Sheffield57 finally seems to have things squared away under new ownership, and The Real Deal reports that it may be ready to ramp up condo sales for the first time in nearly a year. But will those condos sell?
