Demolition is finishing up at 250-260 West 23rd Street, the site of a pair of seven- and 14-story residential building in Chelsea, Manhattan. Developed by TF Cornerstone, the structures will yield a combined 170 condominium units, with 140 in the larger building. The through-block development will also include ground-floor retail space split into five storefronts with frontage on West 23rd Street, and a residents-only parking garage for 35 vehicles on West 22nd Street.
The two buildings will be connected via a courtyard corridor and will share a main entrance with a staffed lobby on West 22nd Street. The West 23rd Street building will also feature secure resident access. Units in both structures will come in one- and two-bedroom layouts with an average scope of 900 square feet. The West 22nd Street façade will be composed of cream-colored brick designed to match the context of the block’s residential character. The materials for the taller component facing West 23rd Street have yet to be announced.
Excavators are currently at work clearing the site of the remaining rubble from its former occupants.

The property was formerly occupied by three structures, including the Cinépolis Chelsea movie theater at the western end of the assemblage and the Broadway Savings bank at 250 West 23rd Street on the opposite end. An additional low-rise building sat between them, as seen in the following Google Street View image from before the start of demolition.

The nearest subways from the development are the C and E trains at the 23rd Street station along Eight Avenue.
No renderings or architect have been revealed for 250-260 West 23rd Street. TF Cornerstone is targeting a completion date in mid-2026.

If it’s TF Cornerstone I’m sure they hired SLCE or Perkins Eastman.
The Broadway Savings Bank was a beautiful old NY building. Sad that it could not have been saved or re-purposed.
