The Lantern House – New York – 515 West 18th Street

The Lantern House at 515 West 18th Street represents luxury at its finest. On a recent walk through the West Chelsea Neighborhood, I was able to get up-close and personal with this amazing new two-building condominium designed by Thomas Heatherwick. Developed by Related Companies as part of the massive revitalization of Hudson Yards, the bay windows and custom masonry façade are out of a fairy tale novel or a Harry Potter script. Living in Manhattan for the past 15 years, there are only a handful of new buildings that catch my eye.

The 10- and 22-story structures with just under a combined 300,000 square feet of space feature 181 one -to four-bedroom Apartments, many of which offer unobstructed views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.

Underneath the bustling High Line and in the prime Chelsea art gallery district, the Lantern House at 515 West 18th Street provides a state of the art facility.

As a frequent traveler prior to Covid-19, I have a keen eye for architecture around the world. From the Shard building in London, the tallest building in the United Kingdom, to the Opus in Hong Kong designed by Frank Gehry, there are some remarkable high-rises that have been constructed.

The Lantern House stacks up there with some of the finer luxury buildings. It’s old world charm in accordance with modern luxury living resonates with the marketplace on many levels. The castle-like development projects a New England vibe befitting of a small town village, the perfect complement to the emerging West Chelsea neighborhood.

The Lantern House is well-located close to the West Side Highway for easy access to and from New York City. If you crave an early morning jog on the West Side Promenade, 515 West 18th Street is only steps from your destination. With an influx of new restaurants and destinations on the West Side, you will never tire of activities. The Vessel is nearby along with the new mall at Hudson Yards. If you desire a Broadway show or a trip to Midtown, hop into an Uber and 5 minutes later you will be at your destination.

Prices begin at $1.95 Million, which is a fair market value with the quality behind this project.
