Does he realize this is just a rough massing illustration? |

NY will be building thick in the coming cycles. Between this and Penn District, the presence from street level will be profound. Midtown is already the worlds densest and most chaotic CBD, and will really transform in the next 10 years. |
I would really like to see a tower in this project that looks like London's Shard, or the cancelled Chicago Spire. The NYC skyline is obviously made up of towers with lots of different shapes, but those are 2 unique ones I think it is sorely missing.

The JPMorgan Chase Building 270 Park Avenue is 1,388 ft tall with 2,5 msf. 175 Park Avenue is 1,575ft tall with 2,6 msf. Here instead we have a tower with a potential of 3,5-4 msf. Imagine the greatness.
Second ... Site 4 could host Affirmation Tower as option B at the current 418 11th Avenue site. :) |
Don't get too excited.
50 HY . 1,011 ft - 2.9 million sqft Metlife . 808 ft- 3,078,513 sqft (I found conflicting numbers on this, but it's around 3 million sqft) Sure we could get a extremely tall one. In fact Merdeka 118 is around 3.1 million sqft, and even without the spire it's still 1,702 ft. But I highly doubt that, from the massings it'll probably be 1,100 to 1,200 ft. Ofc things can always change down though. |

This will be a MASSIVE development, but the good news is that it will be built on Port Authority infrastructure. Much of the "dead zones" around the terminal and tunnel access will be built over. It's a win-win.
The western half of the project would be built first, along with the foundations of towers 3 and 4, before the current terminal can be torn down and replaced. This development also overlaps the northern Hudson Yards, giving some much need height on that end to balance the southern Hudson Yards. Neighboring projects include Silverstein's 520 W. 41st Street, and 550 10th Avenue. https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...pUQNwdH.d3.JPG https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...FPqzYM9.d4.JPG An overview of the footprint on GoogleEarth... https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...1ORRAv.g1b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...943qHe.g2b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...B2dDtG.g3b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...KaU4vf.g4b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...xcvyks.g5b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...Pqke6u.g6b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...SNMolU.g7b.jpg https://a4.pbase.com/o12/06/102706/1...oybBEw.g8b.jpg |

This seems like it would be a logistics nightmare. Glad it's happening though.

1. 2nd phase of Hudson Yards + adjacent developments
2. PA Bus Terminal 3. Penn Station towers + Vornado towers This side of Manhattan will have north of 25 very large towers all clustered together. It may overtake Midtown Manhattan in terms of jaw-dropping scale. The entire island will be Coruscant by 2050. The march to 100 supertalls continues apace. |
