HFZ Capital has revealed the interiors at the Bjarke Ingels Group-Designed XI after launching sales in May. When topped out, the west tower will rise 400' and the east tower will rise 300'.

The structures will be connected by a glass skybridge on one of the lower levels and are centered around a central courtyard and porte cochère designed by Enzo Enea. HFZ previously announced that they will be collaborating with Friends of the High Line to create an open-air pedestrian promenade that will run adjacent to the High Line. XI will also feature restaurant pavilion and retail designed by James Corner Field Operations and Diller Scofidio + Renfro. One bedrooms start at $2.8, 2 bedrooms will start at $3.9 million, 3 bedrooms from $6.5 million and 4-bedroom starting at $9 million.
