Right next to the Hudson river, Manhattan has one big scar. A big hole in the ground where trains are parked. It's an industrial zone of Manhattan. But not for long. Whole west side of Manhattan is being redeveloped into new office/residential/commercial district. And everything starts with the project called Hudson Yards. New modern architecture for Manhattan, new New York towers, one of the tallest in Manhattan.
Famous architecture firms working on those projects are Architects Skidmore Owings & Merrill; Thomas Phifer & Partners; SHoP Architects and Diller Scofidio + Renfro; Kazuyo Sejima + Ryue Nishizawa; Handel Architects. The tallest towers in the complex will be 394m (1292ft) and 310m (1017ft) with 65 and 54 floors.
Current situation at Hudson Yards:
"Hudson Yards is the largest undeveloped single piece of property in Manhattan. Now zoned and fully entitled for over 12 million square feet of commercial and residential development, the Yards will include new cultural facilities, a new public school and over 12 acres of grand public open space. With the High Line to the south, Hudson Park and Boulevard to the north and Hudson River Park to the west, the Yards will be the center of a major new open space network on the west side of Manhattan, bringing millions of visitors a year to what is destined to become New York's next great neighborhood."
