Manhattan, NY Cushman & Wakefield has been retained on an exclusive basis to sell a gallery condominium located within the Metal Shutter Houses at 524 West 19th St., located between Tenth and Eleventh Aves. in the Chelsea neighborhood. Billy Simons and Brock Emmetsberger of Cushman & Wakefield are exclusively marketing the property.
The ground floor unit contains approximately 3,537 s/f. It features approximately 32’ of frontage, an airy, open feel, natural light from a skylight, and varying ceiling heights reaching as high as 24’.

The building consists of eight large residential units and features operating metal shutters and 20’ tall retractable window walls. The property is vacant.
This condominium presents an opportunity for an investor or end-user looking to take advantage of its prime West Chelsea address, only steps from the Highline, directly next to Frank Ghery’s IAC of ce building, and across from the David Zwirner Gallery in the esteemed Art District. The apartment directly above the gallery is also available for sale. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex apartment is on the market with Douglas Elliman’s Madeline Hult Elghanayan.
“Vacant gallery space for sale in West Chelsea is nearly impossible to find,” said Simons . “This kind of prime art district location with these tremendous ceiling heights creates an ideal opportunity for a gallery looking for a new home or to expand into a second location.”
