About HL23
HL23 is the first major freestanding building by acclaimed architect and theorist Neil Denari, principal of Neil M. Denari Architects (NMDA). The standing sculptural fourteen-story residential tower will rise from a singularly challenging site on West 23rd Street half, beneath the High Line elevated railway bed, now slated for transformation into one of the nation’s most lyrical urban parks. HL23’s reverse-tapering structure will cantilever gracefully over the rail beds, creating a local landmark while producing cinematic views and unrivaled intimacy with the High Line for residents inside.
