History and construction
Preliminary plans for the building were released in early 2015. JDS Development secured funding for the structure in 2014, and renderings for the building were made available to the public in mid-2015. The building broke ground in late 2015. Sales of units in the building also began late in 2015.
The building's name refers to a road in Chelsea that no longer exists.
Design
Early designs for the building were first released in early 2015, with more developed versions released in July 2015. The plans for the structure have received praise for their design.
Usage and amenities
The building is exclusively residential, with fourteen apartments spread over ten stories. Amenities will include wine cellars, extra storage, a children’s playroom, and a fitness center. The building will also feature eleven-foot ceilings, in response to the inclusion of tall ceilings in other luxury developments.
Controversy
Gallery owner Mike Weiss claimed noise from the construction site forced him to close his business.
