Closings have begun for condominiums at Chelsea’s Walker Tower, one of the most anticipated condo conversions of the year, The Real Deal has learned. Yesterday, a three-bedroom unit on the 16th floor closed for $7.69 million, a spokesperson for the development confirmed.
The 2,412-square-foot unit went to an undisclosed buyer who will move into the property before the end of the year.
The closing comes just a week after Walker Tower’s Penthouse Two hit the market asking $47.5 million. The building’s Penthouse One went into contract for just over $50 million at the end of October.
Sales at the 1929 building, converted to condominiums from its previous use as copper wire storage by Verizon, launched in June 2012. — Julie Strickland
