Construction Watch: Free to Be, HL23
Monday, October 27, 2008, by Joey
One day, two Construction Watches? Folks, do not panic. Normally we would provide you with sufficient time and space between batches of photos of steel beams and cement, but in the case of HL23, the news just couldn't wait. Now that the legal wrangling over the Neil Denari-designed condo building at 517 West 23rd Street appears to be settled, the glassy mindtrip is free to rise over the High Line. And rise, it shall! Above, some tipster-submitted photos proving that all newborns look alike, even if they'll grow up to become some sort of bizarre alien being. According to StreetEasy, two of the 15-story building's 11 units are in contract. Is Kanye going to step up to the plate or what?
