In September of 2015, YIMBY revealed initial renderings for the 11-story, 21-unit mixed-use building planned at 209-211 West 14th Street, in southern Chelsea. Now, the New York Times has renderings of the final design, along with other details. The 39,494 square-foot project, dubbed the d’Orsay, will sport one-, two, three-, and four-bedroom condominiums designed by Studio Jacques Garcia. Apartment should average 1,712 square feet apiece and some will feature private outdoor terraces. Amenities will include a spa, a roof lounge, a fitness center, and bike storage. There will also be 464 and 284 square feet of retail and community facility space, respectively, on the ground floor. Adellco is the developer and Goldstein, Hill & West Architects is designing. The site’s old four-story commercial building was demolished this past July, but it’s not known if construction is underway.

Owner Denied Permission To Combine Three Upper East Side Properties Into Mansion At 11-15 East 75th Street

6:00 am on March 7, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In July of 2015, Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich closed on the purchase of the five-story townhouse at 13 East 75th Street, on the Upper East Side, for $30 million, completing an assemblage which includes the multi-family building at 11 East 75th Street and the townhouse at 15 East 75th Street. So far, Abramovich has spent a total $78 million acquiring the three properties, and within the last few months, filed applications to combine them into an 18,225-square-foot mansion. The New York Post now reports the applications were, unsurprisingly, disapproved. Combining the buildings would be complex since the structures have uneven floor plates and the Landmarks Preservation Commission would have to approve the project, as it’s located within the Upper East Side Historic District. Stephen Wang + Associates was serving as the architect of record.
