New Interior Photos of Inkwell, the Former Site of PS 51. H Photos via The Gotham Organization
Inkwell, housed in the former PS51 elementary school at 520 West 45th Street, is the first condominium development to rise around the rapidly changing southwestern corner of Hell's Kitchen in Midtown West. While model unit photos were released earlier this year, CityRealty now has the exclusive first look at Inkwell's new detailed interior photos that pay homage to the site's history.
The 18-unit schoolhouse-to-condo conversion was finished last year and sales launched in October. There are currently five units on the market (excluding in-contract listings), with prices starting at $1.78M for two-bedroom units spanning 1,211-1,401 square feet. The only available three-bedroom unit is going for $2.8M and measures 1,901 square feet. The transformation of this five-story, pre-war building was brought forth by NYC-based developers The Gotham Organization, innovative interior design firm AvroKO, and SLCE Architects, who served as the executive architects.

AvroKO, known for their design work on the Arlo hotel and 1 Hotel Central Park, have taken on Inkwell as their first NYC condominium project. The interiors were inspired by the building's original school use and include inspired details like library ladders, brass hardware, blackboards, cubby storage, and doors with transom windows. Ceiling heights reach 13 feet and oversized casement windows allow plenty of natural light to illuminate the open floor plan residences. Apartments also feature an in-unit washer/dryer, stainless steel appliances from Viking and Bosch, and custom designed vanities, light fixtures, and door hardware by AvroKO. Common building amenities include a gym that leads to an outdoor space, tenant storage, and a bike room.
