459 West 18th Street is a prominent condominium located between 9th and 10th Avenue. Developed by distinguished architecture firm Della Valle Bernheimer, the building’s one striking characteristic is its façade – conjoined geometric shapes in black aluminum panels and white fritted glass that can never be found anywhere else in Chelsea. Contemporary and most definitely futuristic, the exterior of 459 West 18th Street makes it one of the most truly outstanding condominiums in the whole of New York. In close proximity of the building are art galleries, affordable delis, gourmet restaurants, and exclusive boutiques. Additionally, the High Line Park is just a few blocks away from the condominium.
Another exclusive feature of the building is its full-floor apartments, which mean that there is only residence per floor. Access is gained through entry-elevator keys. The floor-to-ceiling units are secured by Lualdi Frameless Doors and residents can enjoy the white-washed hardwood flooring that speaks of understated elegance. Each apartment is furnished with energy-efficient Bosch washers and dryers, custom fixtures, and cabinetry designed by Della Valle Bernheimer themselves. The kitchen features a floor-to-ceiling pantry storage, high-end appliances from Sub-Zero, Bosch, and Miele, and wooden cabinetry. Owners of Penthouse units, however, are treated to Ipe wood-accented terraces and fireplaces.
The post-war loft’s amenities include top-of-the-line concierge services from Abigail Michaels Concierge, which is known for its exclusive services in NYC’s first class hotels, a wood-decked terrace, and of course, a gym equipped with high-end equipment.
