40 West 18th Street

 

Design of a new 140,000sf building that integrates into the historic fabric of the Flatiron district.

Although contextual, the design uses distinct details and materials to create a 21st century building. The building runs through the block with towers on West 18th Street and West 17th Street. The project includes the conservation of two historic buildings on West 18th Street.

Sixty-two units have been created.

An earlier design version is shown on the left. The project was approved by the Landmarks Preservation Commission and the City Planning Commission.
