Chelsea Modern

Page history last edited by Steven 1 mo ago

Architect:

Audrey Matlock

 

Completion:

2009 

 

Description:

This 12-story condominium stands out on an otherwise unremarkable block in West Chelsea. Its undulating facade and variegated glass panels bring movement and light to the street. The building brings attention to itself by its color and form without over-powering its neighbors. It is encouraging to see an architect whose works include the Times Square high-rise 1540 Broadway also work at a scale that strengthens a low-rise community.
