SOM are leaders in Urban Development, Transportation, Civic and Highrise/Skyscraper design & architecture. Their portfolio is essential unmatched in large scale projects such as 175 Park Ave.
A local comparison between their work (ie New York) with 175 Park Avenue would be the Deutsche Bank Center (formerly Time Warner Center) integrating lobby, retail, transportation and cityscape (street level) into their design elements.
