Building Categories: Hell’s Kitchen Manhattan

SKY is a rental apartment building at 605 West 42nd Street in Hell’s Kitchen, on the far west side of Manhattan. It was developed by the Moinian Group, which also manages the property, and occupies a full block front on West 42nd Street between 11th and 12th Avenues.

The building sits at the northern edge of the Hudson Yards redevelopment area, a short walk from the Hudson River Park greenway, the Javits Center and the Midtown ferry landing at West 39th Street. The 7 train at 34th Street-Hudson Yards and the A, C and E at 42nd Street-Port Authority are the nearest subway service, and the block is within walking distance of both the Theater District and the Hell’s Kitchen restaurant corridor along Ninth Avenue.

Completed in 2015 and designed by Goldstein, Hill & West Architects, SKY rises 71 floors in a dark glass tower that is one of the tallest on the far West Side. With 1,351 apartments, it was among the largest single rental buildings in the city when it opened, and a share of its units were set aside as income-restricted housing leased through the city’s housing lottery.

The building is known for an unusually large amenity package spread across several floors, including pools, fitness space and lounges. Silver Towers and River Place stand on the same stretch of West 42nd Street, so renters looking at this corner of Manhattan have several of the city’s biggest rental buildings to compare within a single block.
