Overview: Woof, Woof on the Roof
The Chelsea Stratus condominium, located in the heart of Chelsea and soaring a remarkable 40 stories, is a sophisticated building that offers understated elegance and unparalleled service for Manhattan living.

If art and fashion are passions of yours, there is no more exciting place to be than here. The Stratus is the tallest building in the area, with ultra-chic condo apartments featuring spacious rooms and balconies or terraces with outstanding Manhattan views. It is a sensational home in the sky, right in the midst of the New York art scene – there are 200 art galleries at your feet, showing work by upcoming and established artists.

Building amenities include 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a ground-level entertainment area with media lounge, billiard area, fitness center and basketball court, along with ground-floor and rooftop terraces designed by landscape architect Thomas Balsley.

Raves & Faves
If you’re looking for a pet-friendly building, you’ve found it here. The rooftop terrace will even feature a dog run.

And the “Club Stratus,” with its intimate lounge and dining area with catering kitchen, will be a fabulous place to entertain old friends and meet new ones.

Not So Hot
The amenities seem designed to appeal to young singles rather than to families with young children – while there’s a place for dogs to run, we didn’t see any place for kids to run.

Units: Layout, Pricing and Availability

The condo units feature floor-to ceiling-windows and open kitchens with high-end appliances from Sub-Zero and GE. Most units have their own balconies or terraces, and boast ceiling heights between 9.5 and 11 feet. Even small apartments have storage rooms.

Location & Neighborhood
Chelsea has undergone a tremendous upswing since the early 90s, due to the influx of the gay community, the migration of art galleries to the neighborhood, and the opening of the Chelsea Piers Sports and Entertainment Complex on renovated piers between 17th and 23rd Streets. Now one of the hippest districts of New York, Chelsea is well supplied with shopping, restaurants, clubs, and off-Broadway theaters.

Located on 24th Street and 6th Avenue, the Chelsea Stratus condominium is only a block from Madison Square Park. It is close to the F and V subway lines.
