Broker & Buyer Comments

This "striking" Chelsea glass-and-granite boutique condo makes a "distinctive silhouette" with its "elegantly layered" facade illuminated by "vertical bands of light." The "full-service" 52-unit building offers "luxury living" with amenities including 24/7 doorman, "professionally designed" fitness center and a "rooftop sun deck." Set in "prime Chelsea," residents enjoy "doorstep access" to galleries, theaters and the High Line, while tax abatement adds to the appeal. The "oversized windows" and "high-end finishes" complement the "precision design," making it a "standout" in the neighborhood.
