Prima Chelsea is a 14-story condominium with a façade that boasts of a brick and glass structure and step-backs. The minimalistic architectural design is a brainchild of H. Thomas O’Hara, a New-York based architectural firm that specializes in high-rise residential projects.
Residents have the option of choosing among studio, one-, two-, or three-bedroom units, all of which feature floor-to-ceiling windows that fully take in the sun’s natural light. Because of the step-backs that the building offers, terraces are available in units located on higher floors. Units facing the south are located at the rear areas and units on lower floors will be in closer proximity to nearby 19th Street buildings. Each unit has two newly renovated bathrooms, both of which are furnished with limestone and marble finishes as well as glass showers and soaking tubs. The kitchen boasts of a European-style design finished with teak and white lacquer cabinetry and top-of-the-line appliances from Miele and Sub-Zero, just to name a few. All units have climate-control features, stackable washer and dryers and an option for a home office.
As with most New York luxury condominiums, Prima Chelsea offers standard building amenities and more. The 24-hour concierge guarantees a well-attended lobby so residents can go home to their units anytime of the day (or night). Additionally, property owners are treated to a fitness center, a library, a lounge, a fireplace and a screening room to fully enjoy themselves in this posh condominium.
The building is located in close proximity of some of New York’s finest boutiques, galleries, restaurants and nightclubs. Additionally, you won’t find a scarcity of equally posh neighbors here. Prima Chelsea residents can mingle with tenants of Lion’s Head and Indigo 21, both of which are luxurious condominiums located near the building. Property owners have close subway access as well as other public transportations like PATH for frequent New York-New Jersey travelers.
