Building Description

With a name that quite literally says what the building is, Metal Shutter Houses, an 8-unit, 11-story condominium located in West Chelsea, is the first New York City foray of Japanese architect Shigeru Ban. The metal shutters in question are motorized and perforated, and each residence's entire exterior wall can be opened up to the air. Built in 2008, Metal Shutter Houses echoes past Ban works including the Glass Shutter House in Tokyo.

Inside, a 20-foot rotating glass wall can make the residence into one open environment, or close it off for privacy or aesthetics. The penthouses are three-bedroom, four-bathroom masterpieces with 3,319 square feet of interiors and an additional 1,963 square feet of outdoor space including balconies, a private roof deck, and a terrace. There are floor-to-ceiling white lacquer cabinets, Bianco Dolomiti marble slab floors in the Master Bath, and Bosch washer and dryers. The property is just off Pier Sixty as well as Chelsea Piers Sports and Entertainment Complex. The nearest school, PS 011, is located 2 blocks away.
