On the most architecturally treasured stretch of West Chelsea—where Gothic chapels whisper of another century and grand townhouses exude composure—stands a singular offering: 448 West 23rd Street, a landmark home of 27 feet in width, with architect-approved plans that do not merely suggest renovation but invite authorship.

This is not merely a property.
It is a precious mount, awaiting the setting of its crown.

Across nearly 9,800 square feet and seven voluminous levels, the home’s proposed layout serves as both armature and invitation: a structure precisely measured, elegantly restrained, and yet expansive in possibility.

The parlor floor unfolds like the grand gallery of a European palace—anchored by a 35-foot central salon, its scale whispering of salons littéraires and candlelit concerts.
