Overview of Atelier at 635 West 42nd Street

The Atelier, completed in 2007, is a striking 46 story glass tower at 635 West 42nd Street designed by renowned architect Costas Kondylis. The building's distinctive design features alternating protruding façade elements that create a bold, high tech appearance reminiscent of the bow of a great ship, inspired by the oceanliners that once docked along the nearby Hudson River. With its 9 to 1 slenderness ratio and bluish glass façade, the tower stands as one of the most architecturally compelling residential developments along Far West 42nd Street, housing 478 apartments ranging from studios to three bedroom units.

Apartments at The Atelier feature generous layouts with floor-to-ceiling windows offering sweeping views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline. Units come equipped with modern kitchens featuring Sub-Zero refrigerators, Bosch appliances, white quartz countertops, and white oak cabinetry. Bathrooms showcase polished marble finishes with Hansgrohe fixtures, while all apartments include in-unit Bosch washers and dryers. Many units feature wrap around balconies, with some corner apartments offering particularly dramatic L shaped outdoor spaces extending up to 33 feet on one side.

The building offers an impressive array of amenities including a 12,000 square foot fitness center, sky lit indoor pool, and rooftop Sky Lounge with 360 degree views. Additional facilities include full basketball and tennis courts, a private movie theater, children's playroom, landscaped sun deck with BBQ facilities, and a 100 car valet parking garage. Residents enjoy 24 hour doorman and concierge services, cross town shuttle service, and access to 15,700 square feet of ground floor retail space.

The Atelier has attracted numerous high profile residents including actors Jeremy Piven, Brendan Fraser, Jesse L. Martin, and Mekhi Phifer, musicians Ricky Martin and James Blake, comedian Dane Cook, and celebrities like Lindsay Lohan and Nick Lachey with Vanessa Minnillo. The building's appeal to entertainment industry figures reflects both its luxury amenities and prime location in the heart of Manhattan's theater district.

Situated in the rapidly evolving Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, The Atelier represents the first phase of a 1.5 million square foot mixed use complex developed by The Moinian Group and MacFarlane Partners. The location provides easy access to Hudson Yards, the High Line, Hudson River Park, and multiple subway lines including the nearby 7 train extension. A planned second phase will add a 57 story tower with 938 condominium apartments, further establishing this corridor as a major residential destination in Midtown West.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "nautically inspired" 47-story glass tower offers "spectacular" protected views through floor-to-ceiling windows and boasts an "ultra-modern white stark lobby." The "full-service" building features an "impressive" 12,000-sq-ft amenity package including a "skylit pool," health club, and "astonishing" rooftop lounge. While some find the Clinton location "a little removed," it's "just minutes" from Times Square and Restaurant Row, with the area "rapidly developing." The Costas Kondylis-designed exterior showcases "bold notches" and glass corners, creating a "striking" addition to the West Side skyline.
