    Looking south from the upper floors of 570 Broome Looking south from the upper floors of 570 Broome Street towards the World Trade Center and the surrounding skyscrapers of the Financial District and Battery Park City. YIMBY recently went to visit and take photographs from the upper floors of the completed 25-story residential building, which is located in the booming neighborhood of Hudson Square. Designed by Builtd with Skidmore Owings & Merrill handling the lobby and interiors, and developed by Soho Broome Condos LLC, 570 Broome Street yields 54 condominiums that are currently 80 percent sold. The property is bound by Broome Street to the south, Varick Street to the east, Dominick Street to the north, and the entrance lanes to the Holland Tunnel and Hudson Street to the west. The view of Lower Manhattan stretches between the Hudson and East River with residents getting abundant daylight exposure all day long. One final component of the skyline that will hopefully be built and seen is Two World Trade Center. This would be the last supertall structure to join the cluster of glass towers in this image and complete the 16-acre rebuilding effort. The edifice will one day rise to the east of One World Trade Center directly in front of where we can see Three World Trade Center. Photograph by @mchlanglo793
    A tower crane has been erected at 2222 Market Stre A tower crane has been erected at 2222 Market Street in Philadelphia's neighborhood of Center City West. Designed by Gensler and developed by Parkway Commercial Properties, the building will rise to a total height of 282 feet and 20 stories above the ground. The office building will feature a glass façade with stone highlights and glass, along with public space and amenity space. The building will stand at the former site of a 21,000-square-foot parking lot, which was also owned by the developer. New public outdoor space will liven up this stretch of Market Street. Now that the tower has received its tower crane, the building will be ready to begin its vertical ascent, which could rise over street level sometime this summer. The crane is visible from many points throughout the area, including from the Western Schuylkill bank, where it joins the cranes of Arthaus, Laurel, and Riverwalk, bringing an exciting view onto the skyline. 2222 Market Street is expected to finish in August of 2022.

    Construction continues on Bezel at Miami Worldcent Construction continues on Bezel at Miami Worldcenter, a 43-story, 434-unit tower in Downtown Miami. Designed by Stantec for the Moinian Group in collaboration with ZOM Living, the 493-foot-tall structure is addressed as 650 Northeast 2nd Avenue and stands on the southwest corner of what once was Northeast 7th Street, diagonally across the street from the Freedom Tower at Miami-Dade College. Photos by @skyalign reveal the state of construction, where one of the most immediately striking features of the exterior are the patterns formed out out of the placement of the balconies. The facade appears punctuated when viewed from certain angles, creating a strong sense of texture yet still fits with the aesthetic and character of the surrounding towers within the development. The glass on the balconies are being unwrapped out of the plastic that was protecting it from the elements, which reveals partially-tinted blue-green panels framed in black aluminum. Bezel is one of multiple towers rising within the Miami Worldcenter mega development, being the second largest project in the country spanning 27-acres. 48,000 square feet will be dedicated to commercial spaces for food, beverage and retail outlets on the first, second and 12th floor, and adjacent a 922-spot parking garage. Completion for the tower is expected some time in later this year.
    Construction has topped out on 227 West Street, a Construction has topped out on 227 West Street, a pair of 30- and 40-story residential towers in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Designed by OMA with Beyer Blinder Belle as the architect of record and developed by Brookfield Property Partners and Park Tower Group, the towers are part of the 22-acre Greenpoint Landing development along the East River. James Corner Field Operations is the landscape architect, DeSimone Consulting Engineers is the structural engineer, Thornton Tomasetti is the façade consultant, and Highbury Concrete is responsible for building the superstructures. Photos show façade installation progressing on the pair of towers, which feature a dramatic cantilever and corresponding setbacks, creating a puzzle-piece effect. At its pinnacle, the taller structure cantilevers 48 feet out from its base. Thirty percent of the 745 rentals is planned to be “income-targeted” apartments marketed in accordance with the Affordable Housing New York program. Greenpoint Landing as a whole is planned to yield 5,500 residential units, with 1,400 designated for permanent affordable housing, 227 West street is likely going to be finished next year.

    A massive $2 billion master plan, named Fourth & C A massive $2 billion master plan, named Fourth & Central could soon be built in Downtown Los Angeles. Denver-based developer Continuum Partners would develop an industrial area at the neighborhood’s border with Little Tokyo and Skid Row. Studio One Eleven is the designer of the project that would stretch across a 7.6-acre parcel at the intersection of 4th Street and Central Avenue and be comprised of 1,520 residential units, 401,000 square feet of office space, and 93,000 square feet of shops and restaurants. A hotel with a capacity of 68 rooms is also proposed. Private streets and paseos will be designed for internal circulation. Two of the buildings will be designed by architect David Adjaye, best known for his work on the National Museum of African American History & Culture in Washington D.C. Construction could begin within two years and be completed in phases within five-seven years. The project proposal also includes replacing the existing cold storage facility to make way for the mixed-use facility consisting of a total of ten buildings ranging from two to forty-two stories in height.

Inside the edifice will be retail space and a collection of 425 rental apartments and 150 condominiums. Those living on the upper floors of the tower will have 360-degree views of New York City, the harbor, and year round daylight exposure with unprecedented panoramic sunrise and sunset vistas. Multiple setbacks will be scattered across various levels and culminate with a sleek crown. Photograph by @mchlanglo793
    Construction is approaching the halfway mark for S Construction is approaching the halfway mark for Salesforce Tower Chicago in the Windy City's River North district. Rising 60 stories at 333 W Wolf Point Plaza, the new office building is being developed by Hines as the final act of a three-part masterplan known as Wolf Point. Also known as Wolf Point South, the building will yield 1.2 million square feet of usable space and come with retail and dining occupying the base, and office floors with Salesforce as the anchor tenant. Floor plates will span as much as 24,500 square feet and allow for flexible build-outs. As far as the surrounding landscape, the current construction will provide a new park area, a small plaza, a terraced seating area, and the final section of Wolf Point’s 1,000 feet of added Riverwalk. Pelli Clark Pelli Architects is behind the design of Salesforce Tower, the neighboring 679-foot-tall Wolf Point East, and the overall masterplan.  bKL Architecture is responsible for the third tower, Wolf Point West, which stands 500 feet tall and was the first phase to be completed. With Walsh Construction as the general contractor, this final $800 million piece of the Wolf Point assemblage is expected to open in 2023. Construction photographs by @jckcrwfrd
