Samsung 837

2014

Architects: Morris Adjmi Architects
Address: 837 Washington Street, Manhattan

Gazing across Washington Street from the High Line, one can't help but be impressed with this fabulous 2014 addition to an old warehouse building in New York's Meatpacking District. Morris Adjmi's twisted four-story glass-and-steel beacon shines brightly during the long West Village nights, and it's simply another piece of postmodern goodness to gaze out at while strolling the High Line (itself a masterpiece of course, and best enjoyed at night in spring and fall to escape some of the madness of the crowds). Samsung uses this as an HQ/event space; kudos to all.
