Sales begin this week at a long-stalled Manhattan condo project, where the new developers aim to move beyond its troubled past with a name change and their own reputations on the line.
The West Chelsea project, a pair of twisting towers once known as XI, is being rebranded One High Line, in a nod to the elevated park that crosses over the site. Billionaire Len Blavatnik’s Access Industries and New York-based Witkoff Group bought the property for about $900 million in a December foreclosure sale after the original developer, HFZ Capital Group, ran out of money and halted construction.
