Curving over the High Line park in New York City’s Chelsea neighborhood is an 11-story residential building that looks like it belongs in the future.
520 West 28th Street is one of the last buildings to be designed by legendary Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid, who was nicknamed "Queen of the Curve," which seems particularly apt when you look at the 39-residence boutique building. It’s the only one she ever designed in New York before her death in 2016.
The lavish residence has attracted celebrity residents such as Sting and Ariana Grande.
Marketing and sales for the building are handled by Related Sales and Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group, and Charlie Attias is the listing agent.
If the 6,853-square-foot, three-story penthouse isn’t enough space for you, it can be combined with the neighboring penthouse for a combined total of 11,121 interior square feet and a 3,892-square-foot terrace, according to Corcoran.
I toured the building’s penthouse with its 2,000-square-foot wraparound rooftop terrace. Here’s what it looks like.

The doorman let me into the building only after I announced my name and the name of the person I was supposed to meet. I imagine the security is part of the draw for the building’s celebrity residents, who reportedly include musicians Sting and Ariana Grande.
