In 2002, he moved to 525 West 19th Street in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York. In 2012, he opened a London branch in Grafton Street, in Mayfair, and built a large new space—designed by Annabelle Selldorf—at 537 West 20th Street, Chelsea, New York.
In September 2017, David Zwirner Gallery opened an Upper East Side space in a 1907 townhouse re-designed by Selldorf, right off of Madison Avenue. The gallery's space at the H Queen’s building in Hong Kong was also designed by Selldorf.

The five-story, $50 million Renzo Piano-designed gallery on the corner of West 21st Street is set to become Zwirner’s new headquarters, with of exhibition space as well as improved offices and storage facilities. It will be the first commercial gallery to be designed by the architect. In 2019, David Zwirner Gallery opened an outpost in the Marais district of Paris, its first in continental Europe.
