Since the opening of the High Line as a park and a sweeping rezoning, West Chelsea has spawned some of the most attention-grabbing buildings in the city. Most recently, architect-developer GDSNY is poised to join the ranks of Nouvel, Peter Marino, and Norman Foster with 500W25, an elegant project distinguished by a finely articulated facade, large recessed windows, and rows of champagne-colored fins. The 10-story building has just topped out, and sales recently have launched on the 8-unit endeavor.

A floor-through three-bedroom, three-bath corner loft on the third floor has the three exposures, High Line views, 10’6” ceilings, white oak herringbone floors, and expansive private terrace characteristic of all seven full-floor residences at 500W25. The custom kitchen boasts white oak cabinetry, stone countertops, and a Gaggenau appliance suite. The windowed master bath comes with heated marble floors, an oversized walk-in shower, and a free-standing tub.

Six stories up, a duplex penthouse is the crown jewel of 500W25 both inside and out. A corner Great Room with 12’ ceilings opens to a full-width private terrace. On a separate floor, the expansive master suite features an impressive scale, north- and west-facing floor-to-ceiling windows, two large walk-in closets, a marble bath, and French doors leading to a private terrace with Hudson River and High Line views. A private roof terrace has ample space for lounging areas, potential for a full outdoor kitchen, and panoramic views in all directions.

The full-floor residence is listed for $5.495 million, and the penthouse is listed for a whopping $16.95 million. Due to the exclusivity and privacy offered within the building, the average ask of $3,224 per square foot is well above the $1,809 per square foot average for condos along the High Line (per CityRealty indices).

Residents of 500W25 are greeted by a stunning attended lobby with 15' ceilings and a custom wood and brass mosaic. However, the building's greatest asset is its location: The High Line is right outside the door, and the building is surrounded by the galleries that brought Chelsea to prominence. Chelsea Market, Chelsea Piers, the Whitney, and the best dining, shopping and nightlife in Chelsea and the Meatpacking District are a short walk away. Additionally, Hudson Yards is on the rise a few blocks north.

Also nearby is a growing host of architecturally inspired, fabulously luxurious neighbors. One block from 500W25, homes at The Fitzroy, a new condominium designed by Roman and Williams, start at $5.6 million. On West 29th Street, listings at condo conversion Five One Five start at $3.975 million. The nearby Soori High Line, known for its luxury homes with private pools, has availabilities from $3.3 million. More local listings can be found here.
