Tour: Jardim - 527 W 27

South tower fronting West 27th Street from the High Line.

Construction is wrapping up at Jardim (Portuguese word for garden), the two tower residential condo development at 527 West 27th Street, near the High Line. Designed by Brazilian architect Isay Weinfeld, the two towers (Jardim Norte and Jardim Sul) rise 11 stories and flank courtyard gardens on the first and second floor, both designed by Future Green Studio. Many units will have private outdoor space that looks out onto the central gardens. The development will offer 36 condo units ranging from one to four bedrooms.

Both towers are clad in three primary materials: concrete, weathered steel, and a dark brick.
