10:00 am on January 12, 2016 By Reid Wilson

In early 2015, YIMBY reported on applications for a 12-story, 87-unit residential building at 41-22 24th Street, in Long Island City’s Queens Plaza neighborhood, and we later brought you renderings of the project. Construction is well underway, The Court Square Blog reports, and the structure is currently seven stories above street level. When completed, the residential units will spread across 66,256 square feet of space, which means units will average a rental-sized 761 square feet apiece. MY Architect is designing the project and Lions Group is developing it. Completion is expected roughly a year from now.

1:00 pm on January 11, 2016 By Reid Wilson

YIMBY detailed in November of 2014 the initial Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) hearing on the residential conversion of the former New York Life Insurance Company building at 346 Broadway (a.k.a. 108 Leonard Street), in Tribeca. The 13-story, 427,000 square-foot building is an individual and interior landmark, and is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. A month after the hearing, the LPC approved the changes that would including making the structure’s clock tower part of a penthouse and for the clock to run electronically, the WSJ reported. Last week, according to Commercial Observer, the Peebles Organization and Elad Group landed a $334 million construction loan for the project, which would convert the former office building into 151 condominium units. Additionally, a community facility and retail space will measure 7,210 and 2,200 square feet, respectively. Beyer Blinder Belle is designing the conversion.

Why 2016 Will Be the Manhattan Skyline’s Biggest Year Ever

8:00 am on January 11, 2016 By Nikolai Fedak

The rise of the supertalls has been several years in the making, and One57, 432 Park Avenue, and One World Trade Center have offered a preview of the increasingly gargantuan changes taking place across New York City. But 2016 will mark the start of a new era for the city’s skyline. With six supertalls of 300 meters (984 feet) or greater now rising, the city’s total number of such buildings will nearly double, from seven to thirteen. Yesterday, the New York Post featured YIMBY’s compilation of the towers, and today we wanted to give our own rundown on the image and its implications for our continually-changing city.
