Broker & Buyer Comments

"The Onyx is a brilliantly designed, elegantly layered structure of glass, metal and granite illuminated at night by vertical bands of light with fifty-two unique one, two & three bedroom condominiums. Designed With Precision The striking facade of The Onyx, comprised of black metallic panels suspended from the structure, and fastened by stainless steel bolts, rigorously adheres to a single architectural module. Woven with an aluminum subsystem, the oversized windows invite sunlight while filtering the surrounding context. Subtly illuminated at night, The Onyx cuts a distinctive silhouette in the Chelsea skyline, creating a luminous surface that both projects and reflects the vibrancy of the neighborhood. Designed For Your Convenience Every service and amenity at The Onyx has been designed for your comfort and luxury. Amenities include: 24 hour concierge Professionally designed fitness center Rooftop sun deck Fiber-optic ready High tech security system Cold storage in lobby (designed to Fresh Direct standards) Designed For Chelsea Chelsea is filled with hundreds of celebrated galleries, theaters, clubs, boutiques and restaurants.

"Building has fitness center, doorman, roof deck, bike storage, storage, and cold storage for Fresh Direct. Very well priced for the quality of the finishes and amenities in the building. 421-A tax abatement for 10 years. Expected occupancy in Sept 2007. New condo. No board. Chelsea has a lot to offer. Great investment potential with the high line project underway. Lots of new condo developments going up in the area, which will bring higher end retail to the neighborhood."
