HFZ Capital Group is also partnering with Friends of the High Line on a public open-air pedestrian promenade on the site that will run adjacent to the High Line.

Pegasus Capital Advisors—the private equity fund, based here, that acquired Six Senses Hotels Reports Spas in 2012—is also a partner in The Eleventh development project with HFZ.

“This project is a fascinating and exciting contrast to the typical Six Senses locations where we operate resorts in settings with azure waters, UNESCO heritage listings and lush rainforests,” adds Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas CEO Neil Jacobs. “Six Senses New York will have the same touch-points and DNA, with some creative adaptation of course, but with no compromises on our commitment to community, wellness, sustainability and design. We are delighted to be partnering with HFZ on this fabulous urban development.”

Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas operates 10 resorts and 28 spas in 19 countries under the brand names Six Senses, Evason and Six Senses Spas. Aggressive development plans will triple the portfolio over the next five years with resort, hotel and spa openings underway in Austria, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, Egypt, Fiji, France, India, Indonesia, Italy, Nicaragua, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates and the US.

New York

NEW YORK CITY—Bangkok-based luxury hotel operator Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas will open its first property in the US at HFZ Capital Group's mixed-use development on Eleventh Avenue along the High Line on Manhattan's West Side.

Named “The Eleventh,” HFZ's project is under construction at 76 11th Ave. along Manhattan's famed High Line park and is slated to open in 2019. The development will feature two towers between the High Line and Hudson River. The 137-key hotel and spa will be located in the project's east tower, on 10 floors directly adjacent to the High Line, and will have luxury condominiums above.

The west tower, the taller of the two, will be entirely dedicated to condominium residences. The towers will be the tallest buildings in West Chelsea at approximately 300 and 400 feet tall, and will also include 240 luxury residences and high-end retail.

“When we acquired the last major downtown development site in 2015 we had a blank slate to create a new neighborhood on one of the world's most valuable and desired pieces of land. We immediately began seeking collaborators that would meet our vision and enhance it,” says HFZ Capital Group chairman and founder Ziel Feldman. “It's an urban location, yet our site is flanked by the greenery of the High Line and the calm of the Hudson River. Six Senses operates some of the most beautiful eco-conscious resorts in the world and we knew they were the right partner to explore that connection to nature and create something unique to New York City.”
