Financing Underway For 91-Story, 275-Unit Supertall Residential Tower At 125 Greenwich Street, Financial District

6:30 am on March 17, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In January of 2016, filings were submitted to the Attorney General’s office for a 91-story, 275-unit luxury residential tower with retail space at 125 Greenwich Street, in the Financial District. Since then, foundation work has been underway and its developers – Michael Shvo, Vector Group, New Valley, and Bizzi & Parters Development – have been in talks to secure a roughly $500 million construction loan. Now, the New York Post reports $175 million in financing has been raised through the EB-5 program. New details also reveal the highest occupied floor will stand 990 feet above street level, although a crown will push the pinnacle of the supertall tower to a yet-to-be-determined height. Condominiums are expected to range from studios to a triplex penthouse. Rafael Viñoly Architects is the design architect. Completion is expected in 2018.

Back March of 2014, plans for a two-story, 4,570-square-foot commercial building were revealed at 47 Prince Street, on the corner of Mulberry Street in NoLIta. Now, Bowery Boogie reports the building is complete and construction fencing around the structure has been disassembled. The 25-foot-tall building will boast 2,450 square feet of commercial space for a restaurant.

11:00 am on March 16, 2016 By Reid Wilson

10:00 am on March 16, 2016 By Reid Wilson

Property owner Stelios Banagos, head of Bay Restoration Corp. but doing business as an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for six small mixed-use buildings at 106-02 – 106-14 Astoria Boulevard, located between 106th and 107th Streets, in East Elmhurst.

The residential and commercial square-footage figures for each building are not entirely clear, although it appears across the entire development 6,227 square feet of ground-floor retail space and 12,379 square feet of residential space is planned. That means full-floor residential units will average 1,032 square feet apiece. Midtown-based Node Engineering & Consulting is the applicant of record. Three existing wood-framed houses must first be demolished. Demolition permits are currently on file.
