Named after its location in the middle of Manhattan, MiMA is conveniently situated at the center of a vibrant neighborhood that combines the tradition of Old New York with the glamour of some of the City's best nightlife, dining, entertainment, shops and parks. MiMA provides two distinct residential opportunities: MiMA Rentals, with an unmatched luxury rental lifestyle on floors 7 to 50 and One MiMA Tower, a collection of spectacular condominiums featuring Five Star Living® on floors 51 to 63, both offering access to M Club, a sprawling over one-acre array of health, recreation and entertainment amenities.

"Building on our tremendous success at The Caledonia, One Carnegie Hill, Superior Ink and Time Warner Center, Related is thrilled to bring to market another inventive, iconic mixed-use development," said Related Executive Vice President Bruce A.

Signature Center will open in early 2012 and YOTEL New York opens in May. MiMA's blend of uses will add to the lively texture of the neighborhood and create a unique energy and vitality for its residents.

The residents-only professionally staffed pet spa with indoor and outdoor play areas offers grooming and training facilities, in-home feeding, walking services, scheduled play dates, and much, much more.

Related's acclaimed commitment to service is again evidenced at MiMA and encompasses every detail that makes a residence a home.
