Review:
Designed by Thomas Heatherwick, the Vessel is an architectural beauty and landmark in Chelsea that was constructed as part of Manhattan’s Hudson Yards Redevelopment Project. Constructed started on the Vessel in 2017 and was later opened to the public in 2021. Featuring 16 stories, 154 flights of stairs, a whopping 2,500 steps, and 80 separate landings for visitors to stop and enjoy the view, the Vessel has become a must-visit in Chelsea. From the top of Vessel, visitors can see the Hudson Yards Public Square, the New York City Subways Hudson Yard’s Station, a beautiful fountain in the southeast plaza, and a garden just across the Vessel.
