Superstructure has topped out at the Related Companies’ 26-story residential condo tower The Cortland at 522 West 22nd Street in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects, the tower’s facade will be clad in red brick and feature Stern’s signature traditional details like bay windows and a rusticated podium.
