The Helena
The Helena is a LEED-certified luxury rental tower in the Hudson Yards/Hell's Kitchen corridor, developed and managed by the Durst Organization. One of Manhattan's most sustainably designed residential buildings, the Helena offers sweeping Hudson River views, a rooftop terrace, fitness center, 24-hour doorman, and concierge services. Cats are welcome. The building's green design features include energy-efficient systems, sustainable materials, and an on-site community garden. Located steps from the High Line, Hudson Yards, and Midtown West's dining and transit infrastructure, the Helena appeals to cat-owning residents who value environmental responsibility alongside luxury urban living.

What Makes This Provider Stand Out

The Helena in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan is a cat-friendly residential tower offering a rooftop terrace for outdoor access without leaving the building โ€” a practical benefit on inclement days. Hudson River Park is a twelve-minute walk, and pet deposit and policy terms are clearly outlined at signing.
