Overview of Walker Tower at 212 West 18th Street

The 22-story Walker Tower takes its name from Ralph Walker, the architect of the 1929 telephone switching building that comprises the lower floors. The architects at Cetra/Ruddy not only treated the original’s Art Deco with utmost deference, but also extended and intensified the energetic theme to create a 21st century masterpiece wrought in the finest Gotham style.

 

Building amenities include a 24-hour doorman, concierge, fitness center with yoga room, refrigerated storage, playroom, bike storage, gym, sauna, library lounge with pantry and bar, and a landscaped roof deck with dining area, sun lawn, and covered cabana area. Walker Tower's address at 212 West 18th Street puts it in close proximity to the High Line, popular Chelsea restaurants and nightlife, and the 18th Street 1 train.
