Building Description

Located within the grounds of the General Theological Seminary, 455 West 20th Street is a condominium comprised of two buildings: the conversion of one of the oldest buildings in West Chelsea and the latest addition to this historic neighborhood.
The two buildings share amenities and services, and are connected by a glass atrium-style lobby. The residences feature interiors by celebrated architect Alan Wanzenberg, whose commitment to traditional, hand-craftsmanship is signaled in features such as oak flooring, paneled oak entry doors, crown molding, custom millwork kitchen cabinetry, Vermont Danby stone countertops, marble-clad baths, and custom closets in the oversized dressing rooms.

Neighborhood

Chelsea

Chelsea offers residents the classic New York lifestyle, with the perfect combination of cultural and recreational opportunities. With more than 200 galleries, it is the hub of modern art in New York. Chelsea is home to The High Line, a former elevated freight railroad along the Hudson River that has been transformed into a park. It is also home to Chelsea Piers, a converted passenger ship terminal and an expansive health club boasting ice rinks, basketball courts, gymnastics facilities and more. The classic art-deco architecture in Chelsea is complimented by many modern developments, some by such architects as Frank Gehry, Jean Nouvel and Shigeru Ban. The many shops, restaurants and bars make Chelsea a perfect place to spend an afternoon, evening or night.
