NYC's Designing Women

MARCH 9, 2012

March is Women’s History Month, so here's a look at a few of the innovative new NYC apartment Chelsea condos, 200 11th Avenue, NYC. buildings designed by women.

Annabelle Selldorf's contribution to the glittering West Chelsea residential constellation is one of its most notable: The celebrity-studded 19-story loft-style condo building at 200 11th Avenue (shown). The building’s “Sky Garages” allow residents to park their cars right outside the front door, even if the front door opens to a penthouse. Another stunning Selldorf sample: The lobby and interiors at the 40-unit Urban Glass House at 330 Spring Street in SoHo, which was designed by the late Philip Johnson.

Audrey Matlock, for her own firm, designed the award-winning blue-tinted, glass-banded Chelsea Modern at 447 West 18th Street. During her tenure at the architecture firm of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP, she helmed the design of the glass condo at 57 Irving Place with its $18 million triplex “townhouse.”

Deborah Berke designed the headline-grabbing condominium at 48 Bond Street in sleek charcoal-grey granite and glass. The 11-story residence, with its basement swimming pool, reflects Berke’s talent for modern design and her ability to match execution with vision.

Winka Dubbeldam and her firm Archi-Tectonics created the unique, state-of-the-art Greenwich Street Project at 497 Greenwich Street in West Soho near the Hudson River waterfront. The “smart loft” is a combination of an original building and its new addition, with six small parapets serving as a "crease" where the old building meets the new. Dubbeldam is also the designer of a new nine-story residential building at 33 Vestry Street.
