NYU Langone Close To Topping Out 16-Story, 365,000 Square-Foot Research Facility At 435 East 30th Street, Kips Bay

10:00 am on February 5, 2016 By Reid Wilson

New York University Langone Medical Center is now a few steel beams from topping out their new 16-story, 365,000 square-foot medical research facility at 435 East 30th Street, located on the corner of the FDR Drive in Kips Bay. Thanks to photos by Tectonic, we see that the facility, dubbed Science Building, is almost structurally complete, although façade installation has not yet begun. The building will feature 10 floors of laboratory space, which will be utilized to grow NYU Langone’s biomedical research efforts and the NYU School of Medicine’s program. There will also be a lecture room and a cafeteria on the ground-floor. Ennead Architects is the design architect and completion is expected in 2017.
