Façade installation is nearing completion on Casoni, an 81-story residential skyscraper at 989 Sixth Avenue in the Garment District of Midtown, Manhattan. Designed by C3D Architecture and developed by Sioni Group in partnership with AB & Sons, the 785-foot-tall structure will span 384,118 square feet and yield 311 rental and condominium units with an average scope of 991 square feet. The building will also contain two cellar levels. The property is located at the southwest corner of Sixth Avenue and West 37th Street.
Crews have finished enclosing the exposed sections of the crown and podium following the hoist’s removal from the northern elevation since our last update in early March. All the remaining glass panels have now been installed and the distinctive funnel-shaped podium has been completed. Workers are currently finishing the terraces on the setbacks and continuing to build out the interiors. Construction fencing remains around the ground floor as work continues to wrap up at the base.

Vertical lighting fixtures are planned to be discreetly integrated into the exterior recesses for nighttime illumination. Interiors will feature custom stonework and millwork, as well as smart home features. There will also be more than 25,000 square feet of amenities dedicated to health and wellness. REAL New York is handling sales and marketing of the units.
Casoni is slated for completion by the end of this year.
