Chelsea Beacon Begins Construction at 550 West 20th Street In Chelsea, Manhattan
Construction is underway on Chelsea Beacon, a residential conversion and expansion of the former Bayview Correctional Facility at 550 West 20th Street in Chelsea, Manhattan. Designed by COOKFOX and developed by Camber Property Group and the Osborne Association, the project will involve the construction of an addition within the existing structure’s inner courtyard that will extend seven stories above the current roofline. The $167 million development will yield 131 permanently affordable apartments, including at least 79 supportive housing units, as well as a 15-bed short-term transitional residence program and community facility space.
