Lantern House

The Lantern House in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood is a striking residential complex on West 18th and 19th Streets, notable for its extraordinary architecture. Designed by British designer Thomas Heatherwick, the development consists of two buildings connected by a glass pavilion beneath the elevated High Line park. The facade is distinguished by a lattice-like brick framework that surrounds large, lantern-shaped bay windows, some of which span two floors. Opened in 2021, the complex houses 181 condominiums, with retail shops on the ground floor of the east building. Visitors can admire the imposing structure from the High Line, while residents have access to amenities such as a courtyard, a fitness center, and a concierge service.
