At the beginning of the year, the two towers comprising The Eleventh, Bjarke Ingels’ full-block complex named for its Eleventh Avenue location, had only just started to rise out of the ground. A more recent visit, however, showed that they are now 12 stories up. The torqueing appearance of the towers is already apparent in what will be a striking addition to the West Chelsea skyline. HFZ Capital Group is at the helm of this project, which appears well on its way to an anticipated 2019 completion.

Both bronze and travertine-clad towers will be connected by a sky bridge, share a platform on a full city block site, and create quite an optical illusion: A separation between the buildings will make the towers appear to be pulling away from each other, all the while maximizing skyline and Hudson River views. Ruled corners create additional separation and emphasize movement as the towers rise and reorient. This modern design nods to the neighborhood’s history through punched window facades inspired by Meatpacking District warehouses. Podium bridges will allow for continuous circulation and a through-block connection between West 17th and 18th Streets.

The third through tenth floors of the eastern tower will be home to luxury hotelier Six Senses Hotel and Spa's first American location and first urban concept. There will also be 87 condos on the upper floors. The 34-story western tower will be dedicated to residential life with 149 condos and a host of amenities. Prices have not yet been revealed, but HFZ expects them to range from $4 million to $8 million. CityRealty data shows that the median Chelsea condo price is close to $3 million.
