Olson Kundig launches in New York with The Cortland
Related is offering a first look inside The Cortland, its new residential tower at 555 West 22nd Street in West Chelsea.
The architecture by Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA) mixes limestone, metal, and more than a million handmade
bricks to give a “distinctly historical feel” to the 25-story building, which will include 144 residences, ranging from studios to
five-bedroom apartments and penthouses.
For its first residential development in New York, Seattle-based Olson Kundig has designed interiors that “play on the
creative and bohemian nature of West Chelsea’s art scene” paired with a refined West Coast aesthetic, according to
principal Tom Kundig. “The building’s exterior relates to the neighborhood’s historic architectural language, while the
interiors provide a complementary, updated feel,” he says.
Sales are expected to launch later this winter with construction wrapping in early 2022.
