Construction Update: 515 High Line

Looking north towards 515 High Line (left), 10 Hudson Yards (center), and 500 West 30th Street (right).

Curtain wall installation is underway at 515 High Line, an 11-story residential condo development at the High Line, from the Bauhouse Group. The project is designed by SCDA Architects, who are also responsible for the nearby Soori High Line. A minimal glass curtain wall clads the lower volume. The upper setback volume will be clad in a glass curtain wall with curvy glass fins that creates a pattern of movement when viewed on the oblique from the High Line.
