40 Tenth Avenue is Studio Gang’s first commission in New York. The building features a chiseled, diamond-shaped curtain wall that was engineered to eliminate shadows cast onto the adjacent High Line park. Additionally, the facade allegedly minimized heat gain, reduced glare for drivers on the West Side Highway, and discouraged migratory birds strikes. The 12-story building includes 20,000 square feet (1,900 m2) of outdoor space and 16 feet (4.9 m) high ceilings.
