Superstructure has topped out at Legion Investment Group's latest condo tower at 550 West 21st Street in West Chelsea. Designed by Thomas Juul-Hansen, the 22-story tower sits near the corner of 11th Avenue and West 21st Street, between the High Line and the Hudson River waterfront, directly across from Chelsea Piers. In a nod to the industrial history of the neighborhood, the building is clad in hand-laid Italian brick and limestone, carried from base to crown. When completed, it will offer 83 residences, most with private outdoor space and views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.

Tour: 430 East 58th Street - Sutton Tower
Construction has wrapped up at 67-story residential condo tower Sutton Tower on the Upper East Side by Gamma Real Estate and JVP Management. Designed by Thomas Juul-Hansen, the 850-foot-tall tower features a slim rectangular massing with beveled corners. The tower is clad in a facade of Bavarian Limestone panels and floor-to-ceiling windows. As the tower rises, the solid panels decrease in width and the glass panels increase, giving the appearance of a lighter tower at the upper floors. Balconies are also present on the southern facade of the upper penthouse floors, offering panoramic views of Midtown and beyond. At the tower’s crown, a pale gold frieze of geometric facets evokes the city’s art deco past.
Residents will have access to four floors of amenities that include: a lounge, outdoor dining terrace, library, media room, private garden, fitness center with yoga and dance studios, spa, steam rooms, and a 50-foot-long swimming pool.
