March 02, 2021 - Owners Developers & Managers

Manhattan, NY Douglaston Development celebrated the topping out of 601 West 29th St., a mixed-use residential development spanning an entire block on 11th Ave. from West 29th to West 30th Sts. The 938-unit rental project will bring 703 market-rate and 235 affordable residences to the West Chelsea upon completion.

Of the 938 residential units, 703 will be market rate and 235 will be affordable. Complementing the residential units, the project includes 50,000 s/f of amenities including multiple tenant lounges, a gym with fitness studios, an outdoor pool, multiple roof decks, indoor and outdoor pet spaces, a parking garage, and bike storage. Additionally, 601 West 29th St. will deliver 15,000 s/f of class-A retail to neighborhood.

Designed by FXCollaborative, with project construction being carried out by Levine Builders, construction began in 2019 and is on track to be delivered in Summer 2022.

While this topping out milestone would traditionally be culminated with a celebratory lunch for the construction workers, this one will be denoted differently in light of the ongoing pandemic. To mark this occasion, project T-shirts will be made for all members of the workforce to safely acknowledge the project’s impressive and on-time progress.

“Coupled with our 2010 completion and opening of The Ohm, located across the street from this property, we’re thrilled to expand our footprint in West Chelsea, and witness the vision for 601 West 29th St. come to fruition,” said Jeffrey Levine, founder and chairman of Douglaston Development. “Despite a challenging year within the real estate industry, we commend our general contracting affiliate, Levine Builders, and all on-site personnel for ensuring the project remained on track from a timing standpoint, while simultaneously adhering to strict COVID-19 safety and protocol standards.”

“We’re beyond grateful to our construction team that has exemplified all of the hard work needed for us to achieve this significant topping out milestone both safely and on schedule,” said Paul Finamore, CEO of Levine Builders. “We’re looking forward to continuing that effort to bring this project to completion, providing the West Chelsea community with an additional housing and retail opportunity.”
