520 W 28th Street

520 W 28th Street is the late Hadid's only project in New York, and thus, has an inherent special value to it as it brings her signature elements along the High Line. The design is based on graceful curves inspired by nature that are a contrast to the hard angles generally seen in residential architecture. The hand-rubbed metal facade is one continuous line that works its way toward the sky. The curves of the building create a distinct chevron pattern on the exterior of the building, linking residence exteriors and interiors together in one sweeping movement. 

The building, directly adjacent to The Highline, has some residences with master baths that look over The Highline Park and West Chelsea. Master baths are luxurious appointed with white marble contrasted against black crosscut Nero Marquinia marble and a freestanding six-foot tub by Teuco Guuzzini.
