In an emerging residential area at the edge of Manhattan's
bustling Chelsea neighborhood, Perkins Eastman's new 620,000 sf tower creates a
vibrant destination with its mixed-use program. Rising out of a landscaped
urban plaza, the 53-story building comprises 32 floors of luxury rental
apartments, a 290-key hotel with banquet facilities and meeting rooms,
restaurants and entertainment space, and additional amenities, including a spa.
An elegant contribution to the New York City skyline, 835
Sixth Avenue features architectural and structural innovations that belie its
slender profile. As the tallest building in the neighborhood, 835 Sixth Avenue
was designed to take advantage of views of the Hudson River to the west and the
East River to the east. With separate entrances, the building's design allows
residents, hotel guests, and visitors alike to utilize all of its facilities.
The plaza is open to the public and leads to a lobby entrance, used to access
the second-floor restaurant and retail space visible from the street outside,
while a lounge and terrace on the 53rd Floor provides sweeping 360-degree views
of the entire city.
In a location typified by its proximity to Penn Station, 835
Sixth Avenue boldly interprets its rhythms in the distinctive facade, uniquely
expressing the building's mix of uses.
