Man New York sprouts supertalls like its nothing, must be nice. We're lucky to get one once a decade, and that's if its not downsized.
|
Pretty much NY sprouts supertalls that Chicago sprouts 400 to 500 ft buildings about... I remember the days when NY pretty much doubled what Chicago did with regards to skyscrapers...now its pretty much 4 to 5 X...not that were not doing great relative to other cities...but NY just went to another stratosphere in the last 15 years

I found this schematic on https://newyorkyimby.com/2019/11/new...rk-avenue.html even though it's a bit dated and the new building is taller but I imagine the distribution of space is similar. The color code floors by office/trading/mechanical. The trading are a bit higher than the office but looks like the plethora of amenities will have huge floors and the mechanical seem massive as well. Adding all the amenity heights is probably 600+ ft. https://i.imgur.com/a2c4Z1m.png The multi floor amenity levels with trees and the top are going to be incredible in my opinion. This building isn't built just for function, this is going to be a monument to capitalism and a wonder of the 21st century world lol. |

If you walk past 300 N Lasalle, you can see their conference center -- it's the floor with the balcony and the one above it. For reference, here's a description from an article about a ridiculous private equity battle (link): Quote:

Will be able to tell soon, but the floor spacing on the core DOES look to be a bit wider on the last few floors???

In either case, this is gonna be a totally baller space. :slob: PS - If that is indeed Kirkland's 'showcase space' then it's probably unlikely that there will b any surprise 'super floors' left in construction. |

If you're willing to trust the pixels on that plan, 50 is 20% taller than lower floors, and 49 and 51 are both 10% taller. (there are also clearly some taller floors at the top for Salesforce). Also worth noting that this plan is clearly from before K&E's lease, since it marks half the building as available (it's dated 2/2020). They took, reportedly, 600k sqft, which would be 23-24 floors given that the website reports 25-26k sqft per floor. That would probably imply they're taking 26-50 or 28/29-54 (recall the two mechanical floors on 38-39). If the latter, 50 and 51 would be natural conference floors, since there's a terrace on 51. So then all that's available to rent is 26-28 or 51-54. (also obviously possible their floors aren't contiguous, with the staff at the bottom and a gap in the middle; they did that at 300 N Lasalle). |

Well it's fun to speculate but now I guess I should just wait a weeks and see what they build. |

Photo from down the street this morning (link):
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...=w600-h1340-no The mechanical floors on 38-39 seem clearly visible (and they match counting up from the bottom). Counting from there, the heights seem to get a bit taller starting at 50 (not 49...). |

I know that originally there was supposed to be some sort of fountain in front of WPS that seems no longer in the cards, I am perfectly Ok with the idea of doing without the fountain but there needs to be something sculptural there. |
