The Getty Residences (previously known as "Getty Station" or "Sheep Station") is a high-end luxury condominium located on the corner of 10th Avenue and 24th Street in Chelsea, Manhattan, New York City. [2] It was originally a Getty Oil gas station and was turned into a public art display (known as "Sheep Station") in 2013 after being purchased by developer Michael Shvo. It featured a display of Lalanne mouton sculptures created by François-Xavier Lalanne which were from Shvo's personal collection. It was also considered the largest display of such sculptures by Lalanne. [3]
The display was at the corner of 10th Avenue and 24th Street in Manhattan at the site of what originally a Getty Oil gas station. Shvo purchased the property in 2013 for $23.5 million with plans to turn it into a high end luxury condominiums. [4]
Shvo teamed up with Paul Kasmin Gallery for the installation. It began with small trees on the property before teaming up with François-Xavier Lalanne (who was represented by the gallery). Permission to use Lalanne's work was obtained from his widow, Claude Lalanne. [5]
15 of the sheep on display were from Shvo's personal collection with the remaining supplied by Kasmin. The grounds were transformed into a meadow by using gravel and grass, with the sheep positioned as if they were grazing in the meadow. [5]
The site was later developed into a high-end luxury condominium named The Getty Residences, [2] with Peter Marino designated as the architect for both the interior and exterior of the project. [6]
The property is the home of the Lehmann Maupin gallery [7] as well as a private museum owned by J. Tomilson Hill. [8] Maupin paid $27 million for the first and second floors of the building in 2018 [9] with Hill purchasing the third and fourth floors in 2016. [10] The value of the Hill collection is said to be valued at $800 million. [10]
In 2018, the penthouse of the building was sold to Robert F. Smith for $59 million, making it the highest priced purchase on record in Manhattan. [11]
