80 Clarkson: Redefining Luxury Living on the Hudson River Waterfront
80 Clarkson is one of Manhattan’s most ambitious new luxury residential developments, rising dramatically on the Hudson River waterfront at the edge of the West Village and Hudson Square. Conceived as a landmark address and crafted with world-class design and premium amenities, this project is rapidly becoming one of New York City’s most talked-about new condos — blending architectural distinction with sophisticated urban living.
A Waterfront Masterpiece
Stretching across a full city block bound by Clarkson Street, West Houston Street, West Street, and Washington Street, 80 Clarkson comprises two limestone-clad towers designed by COOKFOX Architects — with SLCE Architects as architect-of-record — and developed by Zeckendorf Development, Atlas Capital Group, and The Baupost Group.
The taller tower soars approximately 450 feet (about 45 stories), while the companion rises about 400 feet (around 37 stories), together spanning approximately 650,000 square feet of residential and retail space.
This dual-tower configuration creates a commanding presence on the downtown skyline, offering unobstructed panoramic views of the Hudson River, lower Manhattan, Midtown, and the surrounding cityscape.
Design: Timeless Elegance Meets Biophilic Modernity
- • Limestone Facades: Warm, natural limestone cladding with bronze-mullioned, floor-to-ceiling windows gives the building a timeless, refined presence.
- • Stepped Setbacks & Terraces: Cascading architectural setbacks create landscaped terraces and private outdoor spaces.
- • Biophilic Design Elements: Decorative metal screens with tree motifs and lush planted terraces integrate greenery into the urban environment.
- • Civic Presence: A sculptural fountain anchors the grand motor court, forming a serene and welcoming entry sequence.
Inside, interiors — including kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces — are crafted with meticulous attention to material quality, finishes, and functionality, designed to match the architecture’s sophistication.
Residences: Range, Views, and Outdoor Living
80 Clarkson offers ultra-luxury condominium residences ranging from elegant two-bedroom homes to expansive five- to seven-bedroom penthouses, many boasting private outdoor spaces such as balconies or loggias. Approximately 80% of the residences include private outdoor space, a rare and highly desirable feature in Manhattan.
- • Generous Ceiling Heights: 10–11 feet with floor-to-ceiling windows.
- • Panoramic Views: Hudson River, downtown skyline, and Midtown.
- • Spacious Layouts: Ranging from ~1,900 sq. ft. to over 7,000 sq. ft. for penthouses.
- • Private Outdoor Living: Terraces, balconies, and loggias woven into the stepped design.
Pricing is in the multi-million-dollar range, with two-bedroom residences starting around $6.75M, larger homes from the high $9M range, and penthouses commanding tens of millions, with some flagship units priced up to $75M.
Turnover & Completion Timeline
Construction on 80 Clarkson is progressing steadily, with both towers fully topped out and exterior work well underway. According to the latest construction schedules, the development is slated for substantial completion in December 2026. Initial closings and turnover of the first residences are expected toward the end of 2026, with full building completion and occupancy continuing into early 2027. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
