Overview of Avalon West Chelsea at 282 Eleventh Avenue

Avalon West Chelsea is a 31 story rental building at 282 Eleventh Avenue, between West 28th and West 29th Streets, just west of the High Line. Completed in 2013 with 305 apartments, it was developed by Avalon Bay Communities as part of a larger complex that also contains the adjacent AVA High Line tower. A portion of the apartments is designated as affordable housing.

Designed by SCLE, the red brick building has an 8 story base and a setback tower. Projecting bays, rusticated masonry piers, broad horizontal windows, and numerous corner windows break up the long Eleventh Avenue frontage. An eighth floor terrace faces the Hudson River and city skyline.

Apartments range from studios to two bedroom layouts, with penthouses also offered. Most have floor-to-ceiling windows and in-unit washer and dryers, while wood floors, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, and cherry cabinetry form the standard interior palette. Private outdoor space recurs in several configurations, from compact terraces to large angled terraces and a broad terrace adjoining an eighth floor two bedroom residence; studio plans range from open living areas to layouts with sleeping alcoves.

The building has a concierge, fitness center, resident lounge with kitchen, rooftop terrace, resident and bicycle storage, package acceptance with cold storage, a pet wash, valet services, and on-site parking. It is pet friendly and operates as a smoke free, LEED registered property, with WiFi in the common areas.

Broker & Resident Comments

This "modern luxury" high-rise offers "light and airy" apartments with "breathtaking views" and a "prime Chelsea location" next to the High Line. Residents praise the "attentive" doormen and the "well-maintained" common areas including a "scenic roof deck" and "state-of-the-art gym." While some note it's "a bit of a walk to the subway," most appreciate the "pet-friendly atmosphere" and "professional staff." The "welcoming community vibe" is enhanced by social spaces and "outdoor lounges," making it a "comfortable place to call home" despite being "on the pricey side."
