One High Line

One High Line is a two-tower residential complex in West Chelsea featuring apartments with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Hudson River and Manhattan's skyline. The buildings span an entire city block and incorporate a private courtyard with landscaping and a gated entrance drive.

The project arose on a site where industrial rail infrastructure had been converted into a popular park that attracted new investment to the neighborhood. This development marks the broader transformation of Manhattan's West Side from a working-class area into an affluent residential zone.

The building reflects New York's shift toward luxury residential development in formerly industrial neighborhoods, with its design language speaking to contemporary preferences for openness and natural light. The interiors show how modern affluent residents want to live in connection with the city around them.

The complex sits directly adjacent to a popular public park offering walking paths and green space that make the area easy to explore on foot. The West Side location provides good transit connections and walkability to nearby restaurants, galleries, and cultural venues.

The towers are clad in travertine stone, giving them a warm, earthy appearance that stands apart from the shiny glass structures common throughout Manhattan. This material choice creates a softer visual presence and lends the buildings a classical quality often absent in contemporary developments.
