Move over Greenwich Village, there's a new gold coast in Manhattan and it's nowhere near Fifth Avenue. Since former Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced that the far west side is the city's new Gold Coast and Manhattan's last frontier, a necklace of ravishing projects have been announced along the Hudson River waterfront. The latest reveal is for a new 12-story, 88-unit condominium coming from famed hotelier Ian Schrager and Herzog & de Meuron Architects. The Hudson Square site at 156 Leroy Street will replace a handful of low-slung buildings that include two auto-body shops, a gentleman's club and the former Lunchbox Diner.
