Alchemy Properties unveiled plans for a new FXFowle-designed 24-story tower in NoMad.

Permits filed with the city show that the building at 846-850 Sixth Avenue, between 29th and 30th Streets, will contain 52 residences totaling 105,973 square feet. This works out to units averaging nearly 2,000 square feet each, which could suggest generously-sized condos. The tower is slated to rise 316 feet and will also house 3,100 square feet of retail space, according to New York YIMBY.

The developer is behind the condo conversion of the Woolworth Building’s top 30 floors, including an opulent $110 million penthouse.

Alchemy has partnered with FXFowle before, developing 35 XV in Chelsea, a similarly scaled 26-story condo building with 55 units.

Demolition permits have not yet been filed for the current structures at the NoMad site, including single-story retail and parking. [NY YIMBY]Tess Hofmann
