    YIMBY has exclusive new renderings for an upcoming YIMBY has exclusive new renderings for an upcoming 21-story mixed-use project at 335 Fifth Avenue in the Midtown, Manhattan neighborhood of NoMad. Designed by Raymond Chan Architect PC and developed by James and Jerry Pi of Pi Capital Partners, the 72,000-square-foot building will yield 83 rental apartments above 10,000 square feet of commercial retail space, with the latter component spanning three stories at the base. The corner site is located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and East 33rd Street, directly to the east of the Empire State Building. The main rendering above shows a multi-stepped podium with a double-height ground level, wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass. The three stepped levels, which will be occupied by the commercial component, feature a series of outdoor terraces with glass railings and X-shaped braces that frame the panels on the western elevation. Above these levels, the main tower begins, which will house the apartments. Find out more about this upcoming tower in last week's article.
    Construction is ascending rapidly for 300 N Michig Construction is ascending rapidly for 300 N Michigan Avenue, a 47-story mixed-use tower located in the northeast corner of The Loop. Co-developed by Magellan Development Group and Sterling Bay, the 523-foot-tall skyscraper is set set to house a mix of 25,000 square feet of retail, a 280-key citizenM hotel, and 289 residential units above. Designed by bKL Architecture, the glass rectangular building will feature prominent structural trusses near its base. Photographs show these elements having just been installed facing out onto Michigan Avenue.On-site amenities will include hotel amenity space on the fourth floor and a fitness center on the sixth floor. Residents will also have their own amenities available on the 46th floor, with a terrace offering sweeping views of Millennium Park and the lake. Linn-Mathes Inc. is the general contractor behind the 409,000 square-foot edifice, set to complete by 2022. Find out more about the project in our Chicago YIMBY article.
    Construction activity is underway at One Madison A Construction activity is underway at One Madison Avenue in the Flatiron District, where the 13-story full-block structure is being renovated and expanded with a new 18-story addition. Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and developed by SL Green, the project will stand 27 stories and yield 1.4 million square feet of Class A office space. Helping to develop and finance One Madison Avenue’s future are the National Pension Service of Korea and Hines, contributing a grand total of $1.25 billion in construction financing. Photographs show a large amount of scaffolding extending around the western and southern elevations. The majority of the 13-story podium, which sits directly next to the 111-year old Metropolitan Life Tower, is already covered. Two tall renderings adorn the thin sheathing at the southwestern corner of the property by the intersection of East 23rd Street and Madison Avenue. The new expansion of One Madison Avenue is expected to achieve WELL and LEED-Gold certification and be completed in 2024. See last week's full story on YIMBY.
    The approved 16-story office tower at 311 W Huron The approved 16-story office tower at 311 W Huron Street awaits groundbreaking in River North. Poised as part of the Verso River North development, the tower will replace an existing surface parking lot along W Huron Street. The site is located at the intersection of W Huron Street and N Franklin Street, on the southern side of the street. The CTA Brown Line tracks run alongside the property above N Franklin Street. North Wells Capital is the developer behind the project. Designed by NORR Architects, the building will rise 226 feet and hold approximately 145,000 square feet of office space. The typical office floor plate will span 16,250 square feet. The base of the tower will front the street with 8,500 square feet of retail space. The façade will feature a kinetic exterior wall that will undulate in the breeze. The structure is topped off with an outdoor deck for tenants. The development has received planning approval and is expected to commence construction this year.
    Looking up at the 16-acre World Trade Center compl Looking up at the 16-acre World Trade Center complex from Liberty Park. The Ronald O. Perelman Performing Arts Center, designed by REX Associates and David Brody Bond, is currently underway with more of the inner steel superstructure being assembled within the box-shaped outline. We hope to see the cladding of the light-colored marble occur later this year as aspirations for the performing arts center to be completed by the 20th 9/11 anniversary is the current anticipated deadline.
    More renderings have been revealed for PENN 2, Vor More renderings have been revealed for PENN 2, Vornado Realty Trust‘s recently commenced renovation of Two Penn Plaza, a 412-foot-tall commercial office building in Midtown. Originally designed by Charles Luckman Associates, the 31-story structure currently yields 1.61 million square feet and stands immediately to the east of Madison Square Garden along Seventh Avenue between West 31st and 33rd Streets. The project will fully revamp the 53-year-old building’s interiors and replace its dark mid-century modern façade with a lighter, more transparent glass envelope designed by MdeAS Architects. The endeavor is among a flurry of efforts to modernize the area surrounding Penn Station, which include the proposed construction of a nearly 1,200-foot-tall, 2.7-million-square-foot office supertall designed by Foster + Partners that would rise directly across the street on the site of the Hotel Pennsylvania. MdeAS Architects expects PENN 2’s overhaul to be completed in 2022, as indicated on its website. See today's article for more details about what is to come with the revamped design.
    Exterior work is progressing on 28 & 7, a 12-story Exterior work is progressing on 28 & 7, a 12-story office building at 322-326 Seventh Avenue in Chelsea. Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and developed by Klövern AB and GDSNY, the structure will yield 105,000 square feet of commercial space leased by CBRE. Triton Construction is the general contractor for the project, which is located at the corner of Seventh Avenue and West 28th Street. Nearly all of the triple-glazed floor-to-ceiling windows are installed on the southern and eastern elevations, while preparations are underway for the installation of the building’s signature black terra-cotta paneling. 28 & 7 could finish by the end of 2021 and will feature mostly column-free work spaces with floor spans up to 40 feet and a 12th-floor penthouse surrounded by a panoramic garden terrace.
    Updated renderings created by DBOX for Vornado Rea Updated renderings created by DBOX for Vornado Realty Trust showcase The Penn District, a 7.4-million-square-foot development in Midtown, Manhattan. Located within the same boundaries as the new Madison Square Garden complex from Vishaan Chakrabarti’s Practice for Architecture and Urbanism that YIMBY recently revealed, the renderings offer a more finalized version of five skyscrapers with the tallest, referred to as Penn 15, anticipated to rise nearly 1,200 feet high. Foster + Partners is designing the structure, which would replace the 1,700-room Hotel Pennsylvania with a monolithic building massing divided into a set of staggered multi-story blocks, each enclosed with floor-to-ceiling glass and landscaped outdoor terraces on top of the cantilevering edges, and a core positioned on the northern edge of the footprint for maximum office floor space configuration possibilities for tenants. The redesign also appears to be a tweaked iteration of 15 Penn Plaza from a previous depiction that YIMBY showed back in May 2020. See today's article for more renderings and details about Penn 15's potential construction along with a video showing the site from above.
    Façade installation has resumed at 611 West 56th Façade installation has resumed at 611 West 56th Street, aka 823 Eleventh Avenue, a 450-foot-tall condominium tower in Hell’s Kitchen. Designed by Portuguese architect Alvaro Siza with SLCE as the architect of record, and developed by Sumaida + Khurana and LENY, the 37-story tower will yield 80 units designed by Gabellini Sheppard Associates. Scaffolding rigs on the wide southern elevation mark the transition point of the different layers of the exterior assembly. The rear northern wall is largely blank, but retains the same pattern of a parquet floor tiling depicted in previous renderings that show the extended mechanical portion above the last habitable floor. A formal completion date for 611 West 56th Street has not been announced, though sometime in the second half of 2021 is possible. Read and see more photos from last week's article.
