837 Washington

Situated across the street from the High Line in Manhattan’s Meat Packing District, this new commercial office building sits atop an original two-story Art Modern-style industrial depot that has been restored, preserved, and given the cantilevered metal canopy that is signature to the neighborhood. The new tower is a twisted, steel exoskeleton with a curtain wall of tall, mullioned windows. The design echoes the post-industrial garden of the High Line, incorporating planted beds that nest within the voids created by the torqued edges of each floor slab.
