Renderings of The West depict a podium with an industrial-inspired exterior of oversized windows and upcycled Dutch-made bricks. The top five floors, known as The Cloud, are completely enveloped in a glass façade. Modulated glass dormers and open-air terraces give these residences the look of floating in the sky. The development topped out at the end of 2019 and residents are expected to move in next spring. YIMBY last reported in June that the dark charcoal-colored brick façade was making its way up the main elevation.
Sales for The West have launched. Studios start at $910,000, one-bedrooms start at $1,280,000, two-bedrooms starting at $2,065,000, and three-bedrooms at $2,760,000. Each residence also comes with a storage unit.

I looked in and I knew that, it was beautiful and nice; all renderings: Thank you.
Looks nice, but those prices are outrageous for the neighborhood and location.
All that money but the meth addicts and homeless still roam freely in Hell’s Kitchen. Sad.
For a Jenga looking top or the CLOUD, it is very well done. I am glad that the base is brick and not more window walls of glass, With the units up top, it is nicely arranged so that it does not look like a mass of glass. Glad to see a good design.
Will this pricing stay when the market comes back?
Another Jenga style or as they say the CLOUD. Positive is the brick base of the building, so great to not see the unflattering curtain walls of glass. Even with the glass residences, the style works and compliments the stately brick base. One that can be a good example, we need more mix of traditional and overly modern
Manhattan already has over 10 000 apts waiting to be sold. I want to see a moron paying 1M for a studio in the city that is on the brink of bankruptcy.
