New Mixed-Use Tower Revealed At 74 Trinity Place, Financial District

The site at 68-74 Trinity Place has been one of the more notable recent demolitions in the Financial District, with the building coming down over the course of the past year. The site’s owner, Trinity Church, had previously planned a condominium building designed by Pelli Clarke Pelli. While those plans were shelved earlier this year, we now have new renderings of what will replace it.

The 26-story building, also designed by Pelli Clarke Pelli, will contain public space on its first five floors, Trinity Church’s offices on three floors above those, and 17 floors of additional office space. The building will be crowned with another two mechanical floors, enclosed within the glassy facade, and its total scope will measure 310,000 square feet per the Wall Street Journal.

Stephen B. Jacobs Group will be serving as the executive architect, and the plans will also integrate the existing pedestrian bridge that spans Trinity Place, linking the new building with the historic Church, designed by architect Richard Upjohn and completed in 1846.
