Developer Sherwood Equities has topped out its new condo development, 500 West 21st St., situated adjacent to the High Line in West Chelsea.
"The level of interest and enthusiasm for this property has been tremendous," said Sherwood president Jeffrey Katz, who adds that the residences are slated for completion in spring 2015.
500 West 21st St. will offer 32 one to four-bedroom residences set within a garden landscape with 40-ft. high trees and mature foliage. The design of the property, which includes "industrial" features typical of residences built in Paris and London in the early 20th century, is by architects Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF), under the direction of Paul Katz. The gardens are the creation of Rees Roberts + Partners LLC, designed as a response to the proximity of the High Line. Mark Zeff, president of his interior design firm, designed the building's interior features, which drew inspiration from the structure's exterior and industrial motif.
"500 West 21st St. presents an opportunity to own much more than a remarkable living space," said Katz. "It encompasses the proximity to the High Line, the excitement of one of Manhattan's most vibrant communities, and the unobstructed views of iconic landmarks, all of which place these new residences among the most desirable that New York City has to offer."
Sherwood Equities is a New York City based, privately held real estate investment and development company established in 1952. Long known for its contribution to the development of Times Sq., Sherwood has become a major player in the High Line and Hudson Yards area, as well as other parts of Manhattan. Tags:
