The Magellan is a new development in New York in the highly desirable Chelsea neighborhood. Built in 2002, this attractive postwar high-rise was designed by H. Thomas O'Hara. The building spans 34 floors and encompasses 168 spacious apartments, all of which are easily accessible via elevator.
The apartments at the Magellan feature immense windows, which provide striking views of the surrounding cityscape and fill the space with natural light. The luminous parquet wood floors add warmth to the living space. High-speed internet keeps the residents connected day and night, while self-controlled heating and cooling provides them with a comfortable atmosphere year-round. The kitchens are fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, including dishwashers, and are finished with sleek granite countertops and shaker-style wooden cabinetry. Elegant baths feature relaxing oversized soaking tubs, porcelain-tiled walls and floors, granite-topped vanities, and Kohler fixtures.
The Magellan has many services and amenities to offer the prospective tenant. There’s a 24-hour concierge, doorman and lobby attendant to care for all of the residents’ needs, while valet and laundry services take care of the little details. Video security is provided as an added protection. The Magellan offers a state-of-the-art fitness center with top-of-the-line cardio and weight training equipment. The on-site lounge, commonly known as the Magellan Club, is fully equipped with comfortable seating, a plasma screen TV, and an open kitchen. The Magellan Club opens onto the lushly landscaped terrace, which offers an ideal setting for private parties, especially considering that the adjoining lounge has an open kitchen. The rooftop sundeck offers residents a place to relax with a good book, sunbathe or just enjoy the stunning views.
The Magellan enjoys a uniquely central location in exciting Chelsea. The iconic Empire State Building is just one block away. Nearby Koreatown offers entertaining karaoke bars and Korean cuisine, while Murray Hill, Gramercy, and Chelsea offer many upscale retail, restaurant and nightlife options. Nearby 6, B, D, F, Q, V, N, R and PATH trains keep the rest of the city within easy reach.
