NEW YORK | 111 Murray Street | 792 FT | 58 FLOORS

Looks like a hydraulic pile driver/drill machine. Was starting to get dark when I stopped by the site. Managed to look inside of it. The glass screens where really dirty hence the smudge, but it looks like they are getting ready via placement of equipment, and the clearing of the site.

Condos at 111 Murray Street Finally Hit the Open Market

Sales at 111 Murray Street, the 792-foot, Kohn Pedersen Fox-designed condo tower currently on the rise in Tribeca, have been going on behind closed doors since June—the building passed the 50 percent sold mark last month—but now, finally, there are public listings to be had. The listings give a few more peeks inside the building and showcase the floorplans. Before this, only three floorplans, shared by a tipster, had been revealed. The 157 condos range from one-bedrooms to five-bedrooms, and there will be two full-floor penthouses priced north of $17.5 million.

Witkoff to offer concierge jet service at 111 Murray Street
Residents will have Blue Star jets on call at a 10-20% discount



October 05, 2015

Steve Witkoff is targeting the literal “jet set” for his Tribeca luxury tower.

The developer, along with Fisher Brothers and Howard Lorber, will offer a conceirge private-jet service to residents at 111 Murray Street.

Residents will be able to call the desk to order a jet to anywhere in the world, at a 10 to 20 percent discount, from charter firm Blue Star, the Wall Street Journal reported.

“We believe our buyer profile at 111 Murray is the type of demographic to use private aircrafts,” Witkoff said.

The developer along with partners Fisher Brothers and New Valley has teamed up with Blue Star Jets to offer residents booking services with a 10- to 20-percent discount. But prices are still astronomical: renting a smaller jet like a Hawker 400XP will cost $125,000 for 25 hours, and a larger jet like a Challenger will cost twice as much.

Peanuts.

EDIT: I do wonder who will use that service. 111 Murray is not 432 PA or 220 CPS ...

Pesants. I'd never travel in anything less than my personal 777

Well, clearly Witkoff has worked out a deal with Blue Star to comp all of his personal flights. Nice doing business.

We've seen renderings from this angle at night, and with varying touches of lighting to make it brighter. Here is a day time version. Slight tweaks from the previous.



Also the official one for KPF. The other being the one above this post, and this one:



KPF also states that this will be 244m or 800 feet.

St. John’s Seeks to Cash Out of Murray Street Space

Doesn't seem that long ago the school was still on site. And now we're talking about private jet service for a shiny, new tower. How quickly things change in New York.

Skyscraper construction is just something that will always go on in the city, despite strong NIMBYism. It's New York. That people even attempt to stop it is ridiculous. It's where skyscrapers belong. It's like being outraged at the number of yellow cabs on the streets of Manhattan.

Sometimes I wonder, if we somehow transported all the NIMBYs back to the 1920s-30s, would they have tried to stop the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building and Rockefeller Center from being built?

Yes, NIMBYs protested back in day because the Waldorf-Astoria had to make room for the ESB.

This makes it lucky number 159.

That being 159 projects over 12 floors * u/c at this moment in the 5 boroughs.

* Some include multiple towers so slightly >159

111 Murray Street Residents Will Be First to Enjoy Private Jet Concierge Services

The sculptural tower now underway at 111 Murray Street might be planned to top off at 792 feet—but for the high-end building’s soon-to-be residents, the sky’s the limit.

Pioneering the next generation of luxury living, the project’s developers—Fisher Brothers, Witkoff, and New Valley—have entered a first-of-its-kind partnership with Blue Star Jets, offering tenants of the up-and-coming development exclusive access to private aircraft, car services, and hotels across the globe courtesy of Blue Star’s 25 Hour Sky Card program.

The newfangled amenity will allow residents to book custom travel arrangements within as few as four hours no matter the reason or desired destination—whether it be a spontaneous holiday in the Hamptons, or business trip to Shanghai. A single call to the building’s concierge will put residents in direct contact with a personal flight director, to whom they may relay bespoke travel plans (including any personal food, beverage, and in-flight entertainment requests).

...Residents of the development will receive a 10% discount on Blue Star’s light and medium jet memberships (which normally cost $125,000 and $188,000, respectively), and 20% off super-medium and heavy jet memberships (which typically cost $300,000). Astar helicopter memberships will also be available for $30,000.

Since sales launched last June, over 50% of the building’s 157 condominiums—spanning one- to five-bedrooms—have already been sold, with the 10 units presently available for purchase ranging from a 791-square-foot one-bedroom home on the eighth floor asking $2.025 million, to a 3,366-square-foot four-bedroom spread on the 54th floor listed at $15.15 million.

Yet to be offered are the tower’s two full-floor penthouses, which will each be priced north of $17.5 million.
