A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at Linea would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.

As seen in ★ 92 reviews on Google

Linea, at 428 West 19th Street, is a new boutique condominium in West Chelsea — completed in 2025 per the architect, with a first temporary certificate of occupancy in December 2024 and a final certificate in April 2026 — set on a quiet block moments from the High Line and Hudson River Park. Developed by Anbau Enterprises and designed by BKSK Architects, the eleven-story, 32-residence building was conceived as a refined, owner-focused addition to the gallery-and-design district that West Chelsea has become, where new construction is tightly constrained and genuinely scarce.

The appeal is contemporary living in one of downtown-adjacent Manhattan's most desirable corridors, delivered as a condominium. West Chelsea draws buyers for the High Line, the galleries, and the architectural ambition of its newest buildings; Linea offers that setting with the financing flexibility, light closing process, and resale and rental latitude of fee-simple ownership. At just 32 homes, it is intimate by design, with layouts running from studios to four-bedrooms and private outdoor space on select residences.

For a buyer who wants new construction near the High Line without the scale of a large tower, Linea threads that needle: a small, well-detailed building on a residential block, steps from the park, the river, and the cultural life of West Chelsea.

Building operations

Linea operates as an attended condominium with a boutique amenity program maintained through the common charges. As a condominium, the building offers fee-simple ownership without a co-op board process: purchases clear through a right-of-first-refusal, financing is not subject to co-op-style caps, and pied-à-terre use, subletting, and ownership through trusts or entities are customary. The small residential count keeps the building's operating profile efficient, with the shared systems and amenities scaled to 32 households.

Architecture and residences

BKSK Architects designed Linea as a contemporary mid-rise scaled to its West Chelsea block — roughly 118 feet across eleven stories, with a restrained, well-proportioned street presence rather than the assertive forms of some neighboring towers. The result is a building that fits its low-rise, gallery-district context while delivering the light and volume of new construction.

The 32 residences average a generous footprint — on the order of 1,400-plus square feet — and range from studios through four-bedroom homes, with some residences featuring private outdoor space. Interiors carry the hallmarks of current high-specification new development: oversized windows, nine-foot ceilings, and wide-plank white oak flooring, with modern kitchens and baths and full new-building mechanical systems beneath. The scale and finish are calibrated to the buyer who wants move-in-ready contemporary space in a boutique setting.

Common charges plus real estate taxes, combined into one monthly figure the way New York condominium listings show them. Add a mortgage payment for the monthly outlay. The split into common charges and taxes comes from the listings that also give the annual tax, a different sample, so the two lines need not add up exactly to the combined median; a tax abatement can hold taxes below the full amount until it expires.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $2,026/sf (floor-adjusted) across 7 sales. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 2.4% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying

The buying case is new construction, condominium structure, and a prime West Chelsea location. You are buying a BKSK-designed boutique building steps from the High Line and Hudson River Park, with fee-simple ownership, flexible financing, and the resale and rental latitude that condominiums provide. Because the building is new, the homes deliver contemporary systems, ceiling heights, and finishes without a renovation project.

Diligence for a new building centers on the offering plan and closing mechanics, the developer's track record (Anbau Enterprises here), and the projected common charges and tax treatment as the building moves through its first ownership cycle. Within the building, floor, exposure, and private outdoor access drive value, and the High Line-corridor setting makes light and view especially material to pricing.

What to know if you’re selling

Sellers lead with scarcity and pedigree: a new BKSK-designed condominium in West Chelsea, steps from the High Line, in a corridor where ground-up construction is tightly limited. New-building systems, contemporary layouts, and condominium flexibility are durable differentiators against both older Chelsea stock and the larger towers nearby.

Benchmark pricing to West Chelsea's newest condominium inventory rather than to pre-war conversions, adjusting for floor, light, outdoor space, and layout. With only 32 residences and the first owners just taking title, comparable supply is limited; a well-positioned resale benefits from the building's recent debut pricing and the scarcity of comparable new product near the High Line.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
