Chelsea Market Marquee
9th Avenue, Manhattan, New York, NY, United States
Built in the 1890's, the existing complex of 18 separate buildings now known as Chelsea Market, was once home to a Nabisco manufacturing plant. The Market's owners hired STUDIOS master plan and renovate the existing market to accommodate new additions. In addition to designing a 240,000-square-foot office addition and a 90,000-square-foot hotel tower for the property, STUDIOS recently completed a new signature marquee for the main Ninth Avenue entrance. While the previous canopy certainly drew attention, its style was out of place in the local Meat Packing District loading-dock vernacular. STUDIOS' new marquee incorporates the area's industrial qualities, while also extending the upscale character of Chelsea Market to Ninth Avenue.The marquee features a plain steel, welded and industrially-coated custom truss and frame structure with steel rod, clevis and turnbuckle tiebacks to the building. The roof is comprised of green-tinted, corrugated acrylic panels with encapsulated wire. Linear LEDs subtly graze the existing brick façade with light, while the canopy framework is accented with LED 'neon' strip lights. Metal halides cast a warm, inviting glow on the sidewalk, a while vintage-inspired neon signage clearly identifies the main entrance to Chelsea Market. All fixtures on daylight sensors to conserve energy.
