Manhattan West is in the heart of Manhattan’s newest neighborhood on the west side. At over 7 million square feet, Manhattan West will be a thriving community made up of state-of-the-art custom designed office spaces, curated food, retail, pop-up experiences, a 2-acre public plaza, 844 residential units at The Eugene and The Pendry hotel. Steps from the new Empire Station Complex, Penn Station and the new 7 subway line, Manhattan West is positioned at the center of connectivity amid 15 subway lines, Amtrak, Metro-North, LIRR and NJ Transit. Manhattan West also serves as the connection point between the theater district, the High Line, the Chelsea art galleries, the Culture Shed, and Madison Square Garden. It’s a destination for innovative companies, discerning consumers and experience seekers alike.
IMPORTANT: All attendees must enter the building through the revolving doors facing 9th Avenue. Bisnow staff will be on-site to greet you and show you up to the event space on the 53rd floor.
