An artistic rendering of Zaha Hadid's newest building that borders the High Line in West Chelsea.
Zaha Hadid, one of the most visionary architects of our time, died at age 65 in 2016.Over the span of her career, the controversial and uncompromising architect created award-winning museums, condos, stadiums, and pavilions. In her last years, she took on a new challenge: designing a luxury condo complex over the High Line, Manhattan's famed elevated park.
The new condo building will be impressive, with an intricate metal and glass facade sculpted piece by piece. Inside, the high-rise will boast a parking garage with an automatic valet system and the city's first private 3D IMAX theater.
Developer Related Companies broke ground in 2014, and the building opened in June 2017. Now, the building has started selling units, starting with a pair of two-bedroom units with open-layout kitchens and private balconies, according to 6sqft. Measuring 2,147 square feet each, they were sold for $6 million and $6.2 million, respectively. Approximately 60% of the building's units are in contract.
Since it was Hadid's first NYC building and one of her last designs, it will remain a testament to her legacy.
In 2016, Business Insider toured one of the model units. Take a look inside.
