Carter's Review
This 13-story rental apartment building at 303 Tenth Avenue between 27th and 28th streets is known at Port 10.
It has a lobby with an angled ceiling, a 24-hour doorman, and a roof deck with a bar, outdoor cinema and a barbecue, a fitness center designed by Jay Wright from the Wright Fit, game center, lounge, Knickerbocker concierge service, on-premise building manager and bicycle room.
One website noted that it been "designed for the young, hip apartment dweller - with amenities like a 3,700 square foot rooftop deck and an outdoor cinema, the building is geared toward urbanites who want to make the most of their large paychecks. The location is perfect for the nightclub crowd, but it s also good for people who want to be able to exercise at Chelsea Piers and run along the West Side Highway - and of course, it's great for folks who like to gallery hop."
It was developed by the Atlantic Development Group LLC of which Peter Fine and Marc Altheim are principals. Atlantic's other projects in Manhattan include 2 Cooper Square and 33 West End Avenue.
H. Thomas O'Hara was the architect for Port 10.
The dark gray-brick building has 89 apartments, of which about 18 are affordable housing units for which the developer received a zoning bonus. According to an August 3, 2009 article by Pete at curbed.com "some bulk was added at a cost of $3 million by swapping some development rights with a property on West 24th Street."
Apartments have washers and dryers and some have terraces.
The building is convenient to the High Line Park and the many restaurants and galleries and nightclubs of West Chelsea.
