WOW! If the Hudson Yards project becomes a reality, and if it follows the renderings on the first couple of pages....:hell: All HEdouble hockey sticks are going to break loose! You guys in NY get to have all the fun!:haha:
1800 ft.? That's sweet. One of the renderings make it look like the World Trade Center on steroids! The architects went to McDonald's drive thru, and were probably asked "Do you want that 'Biggy' sized?" Well, He** yeah! Hope it comes true for "yous" guys! :yes: |
Exciting concept for sure, would love to hear more info.
|
Build it, Build it, Build it! :D

I say go for it. Why not. http://www.pbase.com/nyguy/image/154396667/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/nyguy/image/154396668/original.jpg The tower could double in size if the Sherwood portion of the site is thrown in. Not that it would be taller, a larger component could squeeze in potential office space. http://www.masseyknakal.com/listings...0&ty=6&r=1&tt= http://www.masseyknakal.com/listingi..._SlideShow.jpg http://www.pbase.com/nyguy/image/154396748/original.jpg |
^maybe take out the spire and go to the full 1800ft?
|
This area is will become the new Pudong of the west. :) NYC is building the big 3 all over again. Hudson Spire, 30 Hudson Yards, and now all we need is a tower that breaks 2000ft. NY tower (Like the Shanghai Tower).
|
God i'm almost afraid to get excited about this for fear that its just hyperbole.
|
^One way or another I feel like NYC will get a +1500 footer proposed this year or early next year.
Either way the magnitude and beauty of NYC will be doubled within a few years. |

It's a conceptual design, being used to market the site to someone or a team of developers that would likely find such a thing attractive. It takes years to assemble sites large enough and with enough air rights to develop large towers, but here is one gift wrapped with the Hudson Yards zoning. It's early, but Time Warner's move to the Hudson Yards along with the subway expansion makes that area "official". The Hudson Spire would be right in the middle of it all. Sherwood earlier flirted with the idea of hotel instead of office space for the site. But we'll wait and see if the site is expanded (consolidated) for a larger building. |
Yet another reason why we need a new Penn Station - the gateway into this site needs to match the site itself.

It's a good read for people not fimiliar to the site-- renders in the article already posted here...

It's still just a concept. Whatever developer is brought on to the project would choose their own architects for the project.

Still, we have towers like One Vanderbilt up there and that is by no means even close to a finalized proposal. |
Under the current scenario, the bulk of the tower would be hotel/condo. If the other piece of the property is obtained from Sherwood Equities (which would no longer be able to build the massive tower they were planning), there could be some office space added to the development. It's all a matter of just who gets the site, and just what will happen with the rest of it.
