Challenge
Located among the galleries of West Chelsea, 560 West 24th Street was conceived specifically for collectors and others connected to the arts. The residences needed to function not only as homes, but as environments capable of displaying and protecting significant works of art – placing unusual technical demands on an intimate residential development.
SOLUTION
G&T provided Project and Cost Management services for the 40,000 SF development, designed by Steven Harris Architects with Montroy Andersen DeMarco as executive architect. The residences feature reinforced walls to support heavy pieces of art, along with humidity controls to help preserve displayed works. The development also includes a dedicated art gallery at basement level.
Outcome
560 West 24th Street brings the experience of collecting into the architecture of everyday life. Generous residences provide carefully considered settings for both living and displaying art, creating a highly specialized residential address that feels at home among the galleries and cultural institutions of West Chelsea.
