    Community Board Five’s Land Use, Housing & Zonin Community Board Five’s Land Use, Housing & Zoning Committee voted in a meeting on Wednesday to advance plans for a massive undertaking in Midtown involving the conversion of Madison Square Garden into a new concourse for Penn Station, and the creation of a new home for the sports facility between two supertall skyscrapers near Herald Square. Initially proposed in 2016 by Vishaan Chakrabarti, founder of Practice for Architecture and Urbanism (PAU), new renderings give visual context to the plan, to which the city council agreed with the consideration of The Madison Square Garden Company’s acquisition of a shorter extension of its current lease. Madison Square Garden would move to an eight-acre site consisting of two full-block parcels that would give rise to a pair of supertall skyscrapers and two shorter towers, anchoring all four corners of a raised podium above street level. PAU’s initiatives of removing of the arena interiors of Madison Square Garden, expanding the transportation concourse floors of Penn Station and overhauling the cylindrical superstructure would also occur if all goes according to plan. See YIMBY's article for more details about this massive undertaking.
    Renderings have been revealed of an updated design Renderings have been revealed of an updated design for the Parcel O Tower at Lakeshore East. Located at 193 N Columbus Drive, the site within the larger mega development is currently a vacant lot. Magellan Development Group is in charge of the tower project, while bKL Architecture is the designer. The scope of the building has been revised to contain only one hotel with 269 keys rather than two hotels with 570 keys. The developer has also reduced the number of apartment units from 640 to approximately 599 apartment units and 30 serviced apartment units. The redesign also includes three levels of co-working space and a newly revised height of 502 feet and 47 stories. Construction would begin no earlier than October 2021 and reach completion by April 2024. See our article on Chicago YIMBY for more info.
    The fifty-first tallest structure in the Bay Area The fifty-first tallest structure in the Bay Area is Infinity 1 at 338 Spear Street, SoMa, San Francisco. The 423-foot tall tower opened in 2008 with an undulating dark cyan curtain-wall facade. The building design is a collaboration between Arquitectonica and Heller Manus, and Tishman Speyer was the developer and remains as the property owner. There are four distinct mixed-use buildings with the tallest, 338 Spear Street, rising 40 floors and 423 feet. Its companion tower is at 301 Main Street rises 37 floors and 350 feet. 333 Main Street stands nine stories tall, and 318 Spear Street stands eight stories high. The combined project offers 650 apartments, of which 285 are in Infinity 1. Residencies range from 500-580 square-foot studios to 1,300-3,400 square feet three-bedroom homes. As of 2018, the average apartment sold for $950 to $1500 per square foot. The development provides 1.56 million square feet, including 30,000 square feet of ground-level retail, five levels of underground parking, and residential amenities such as an indoor pool 75 feet above street level, a community room, rentable theater space, and a central landscaped courtyard.
    This past Tuesday saw the launch of One Essex Cros This past Tuesday saw the launch of One Essex Crossing's residences, and YIMBY has an exclusive reveal of a slew of renderings for the project, for which occupancy is anticipated later this year. Located on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, the 14-story full-block development is designed by CetraRuddy and developed by Delancey Street Associates, which is comprised of BFC Partners, L+M Development Partners, Taconic Partners, the Prusik Group, and Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group. The site is bounded by Delancey Street to the north, Suffolk Street to the east, Broome Street to the south, and Norfolk Street to the west, and is one of several addresses in the Essex Crossing master plan that’s spread across six acres and a total of nine buildings. Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group is handling sales for One Essex Crossing with prices ranging from $890,000 for a studio, to $6,689,000 for a duplex penthouse. Thirty percent of all residences come with their own private outdoor space, and range in size from 518 square-foot studios to 2,187 square-foot three bedrooms, along with a variety of penthouses. See our article for more exciting details about this project.
    Looking at the 1,428-foot tall 111 West 57th Stree Looking at the 1,428-foot tall 111 West 57th Street, designed by SHoP Architects for JDS Development, Property Markets Group, and Spruce  Capital Partners as New York City's current second tallest structure by roof height and the third tallest by architectural height. The construction crane awaits full dismantlement on the southern elevation and the remaining glass panels filled in on the northern profile facing Central Park where the exterior hoist is still temporarily attached.
    Construction is now complete on the Pendry Manhatt Construction is now complete on the Pendry Manhattan West Hotel, a 281-foot-tall mixed-use structure at Four Manhattan West in Midtown West. Designed by Skidmore Owings & Merrill and developed by Brookfield Properties, the 21-story project makes up one of five separate buildings in the Manhattan West master plan, which sits directly across Tenth Avenue from Hudson Yards. The property is located along West 33rd Street between Ninth and Tenth Avenues, wedged between One Manhattan West and Five Manhattan West, and will yield 164 guest rooms as well as condominiums on the upper levels. The upper extension atop the roof parapet looks to be completed and enclosed in an envelope of lightly corrugated white metal paneling. Surrounding this is a perimeter of metal railings around the edges of the building. The Pendry Manhattan West Hotel is expected to open this summer, as noted on their main website.
    Renderings have been revealed for a proposed 27-st Renderings have been revealed for a proposed 27-story mixed-use development at 160 N Elizabeth Street in West Loop of Chiacgo. Located at the intersection of W Randolph Street and N Elizabeth Street, the corner site is currently home to a cluster of low-rise masonry buildings. Moceri + Roszak are the developers behind the project. Designed by Thomas Roszak Architecture, the development will rise 293 feet and hold 383 residential units and 9,000 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor. The structure will include space for 150 bicycle parking spaces and 117 vehicle parking spaces. The exterior design consists of a three-story glass and brick podium spanning the whole parcel, a steel and glass tower with a setback on the 14th floor, metal screens, and multiple balconies. An official timeline for the development has not been announced.
    New renderings from Handel Architects reveal The S New renderings from Handel Architects reveal The Set, a 587-foot-tall residential skyscraper under construction at 451 Tenth Avenue in Hudson Yards. Developed by Related Companies, the 45-story structure is rising from a 17,280-square-foot L-shaped lot at the corner of Tenth Avenue and West 35th Street, directly to the north of Bjarke Ingels‘ 66 Hudson Boulevard, aka The Spiral. Though it’s unclear which final form the building will take in terms of color palette, the renderings are likely a good indication of what’s to come for the reinforced concrete edifice that’s already several floors above street level. The external architectural appearance is inspired by Gothic cathedrals and emphasizes the idea of verticality by utilizing a motif of elegantly curved terracotta panels between the floor-to-ceiling windows. Renderings show these façade elements in both a light gray and bronze option. No official completion date has been announced for 451 Tenth Avenue, but sometime in 2022 is likely.
    Construction preparations appear imminent at 3151 Construction preparations appear imminent at 3151 Market Street, site of a 185-foot-tall, 14-story tower in University City, West Philadelphia. The building will rise between Market Street and John F. Kennedy Boulevard and include lab space for use by the nearby universities. Designed by SHoP Architects, the exterior originally had yellow exterior cladding, but the latest plans show a green metallic finish. The building is developed by Brandywine Realty Trust as part of the 14-acre Schuylkill Yards development, which plans to include a major cluster of towers, though for now only a small group of high-rises under 500 feet tall have been proposed. The structure will rise two parcels to the west of 3025 Market Street. The building is anticipated to be completed in the second quarter of 2023.
