Construction is now topped out at 25 North Lex, a high-rise mixed-use property at 25 North Lexington Avenue in White Plains, New York. Led by developer Greystar Real Estate Partners, the property will eventually contain 500 rental apartments, 60,000 square feet of amenities, and 16,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space.
Construction is complete on Gotham Point’s north tower, a 57-story residential skyscraper at 1-15 57th Avenue in Hunters Point South, Queens. Designed by Handel Architects and developed by Gotham Organization and Riseboro Community Partnership, the 559-foot-tall structure yields 692 rental units and is also known as Parcel F in a two-tower master plan alongside its shorter 33-story, 443-foot-tall sibling, Parcel G. The property is bound by Center Boulevard to the north, 56th Avenue to the east, and 57th Avenue to the west.
Permits have been filed for an eight-story mixed-use building at 40-25 Crescent Street in Long Island City, Queens. Located between 40th and 41st Avenues, the lot is two blocks north of the Queensboro Plaza subway station, serviced by the 7, N, and W trains. Michael Hardy of Crescent Street Associates is listed as the owner behind the applications.
Excavation is progressing at 740 Eighth Avenue, the site of a 52-story supertall hotel and observation tower in Midtown, Manhattan. Designed by ODA with SLCE Architects as the architect of record and developed by Extell, the 1,067-foot-tall skyscraper will yield 776,000 square feet with 825 hotel rooms in its lower half and a public observatory with a drop ride attraction above. The unconventionally-shaped structure will also contain retail space, two upper restaurant floors, and a pool deck for guests. Lendlease is the general contractor, WSP is the structural engineer, and Ancora Engineering is handling excavation and foundations for the property, which is located on an expansive lot along Eighth Avenue between West 45th and 46th Streets on the border of Times Square and Hell’s Kitchen.
