New York Projects & Construction


NYC Midtown Skyline by Manish Reddy, on Flickr


Ok so I decided to do this NYC thread.

Unfortunately for NYC, a city of skyscrapers, a lots of zonings, construction costs and NIMBY's makes it impossible to built too tall in the city. But somehow something tall gets built. And that is all good. Keep in mind that most of the construction boom in the city are conversions from existing buildings like Offices, Hotels and Rental buildings to Condominiums apartments and there is alot of under 12 floors. So I wont post anything below 12 floors here. It is too much work to keep track. I also can't find a few renderings for somewhat tall buildings under construction yet.

If anybody thinks I got the hight in feet or the floors of a building wrong or if I missed a building please let me know. If you have a rendering for a building that I don't have please let me know. I will also try to store renderings in my photo service so I can have easy access for posting them. Hope nobody minds.

I also have not listed the proposing buldings and their renderings yet. But I will do that another time. This has been alot of work and time consuming.

I am posting based on number of floors as oppose to height. Much easier for me. But there are some towers with lesser floors but are much heigher in feet. So keep that in mind.


Hopefully I did this one right and I hope you enjoy it. ;)

Wow, I thought NY was asleep in comparasion with Chi and Dubai, but it is not. Btw, why is 7 WTC empty still?
To my knowledge, as of Feb of 2006, Silverstein has signed 3 tenants. So while its not empty, he still has a ways to go.

The tenants will come though.

^NYC builds, but mostly residential towers, and has started to go outside of Manhattan.
The towers aren't as grand as what you see in Chicago, however we already have enough anyway.
As for 7WTC, there's tenants, but very few still. And that's knowing some experts believe Manhattan will run out of office space soon, and the paradox is that the Freedom Tower and other new WTC redevelopment don't cause companies to rush in. It's as if they want to come to New York, just not there.
That's my opinion, and I'm far from being an expert, so do not take my word, at least this post could provoke those who know better to correct me if I'm wrong.

Isn't construction of Freedom Tower supposed to start in a few days? I've been watching the sight. Activity, especially by the base of Freedom Tower, increases every day.
I don't know. It's been supposed to start for years.
Personally I don't want the Freedom Tower built, actually I don't want any towers built at all, but Silverstein is the one making money out of this
