A Midcentury Building Is Remade for Today


KEIKO MORRIS
Jan. 27, 2016

Quote:
A project under way at 390 Madison Ave. is taking a mid-20th century office building once shrouded in dark glass and turning it into a light-filled, 21st-century office building—only taller.

Sections of floors will be removed, creating the high ceilings that modern tenants desire, and a wraparound terrace will be built on the eighth floor. The square-footage removed from these lower floors will be added to the top—an eight-story addition of pricier office space that also lends a slimmer overall shape to the 1953 structure, currently 24 floors.

“We’ve done it before, but never to this extent,” said Doug Hocking, principal at Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates PC, which worked on the job. “This is a great story of adaptive reuse.”

Madison Avenue Building Undergoing Extreme Facelift


Quote:
A hulking building with opaque glass on Manhattan's Madison Avenue is currently wrapped in scaffolding and construction material, signifying to onlookers that something big is happening here. Within the hoarding marking the borders of the site, the 24-storey 380 Madison Avenue is being reincarnated as 390 Madison Avenue in an impressive feat of engineering.

I walk past the site everyday and it's very active. The structural elements appear to be all be in place but there's no sign of cladding. It's been that way for a few months.

They've been jamming away at the additional floors … appears to almost be T/O. Also noticed some cladding on the lower floors facing Madison.

L&L’s 32-Story Redevelopment Of 390 Madison Avenue Tops Out, Midtown East





Quote:
The original building stood 24 floors and 291 feet to its rooftop, while the redevelopment stands 32 floors and 373 feet tall, which is a relatively substantial increase for a structure that was previously quite squat. The total area of 850,000 square feet has remained the same, as 380 Madison was already overbuilt for its zoning.

That meant the developers had to pursue the same process underway at 425 Park Avenue, where at least a quarter of the original building must be preserved in order to maintain the same square footage of a redevelopment. In 380 Madison’s case, only 18% of the tower was removed.

Kohn Pedersen Fox is the project’s architect, and besides steel reaching the new rooftop, glass installation has also begun across the exterior. Completion is anticipated by early next year.

Not bad, especially if it is as bright and airy as the renders make it out to be.
