In June, Tishman Speyer announced that construction would start for their 64-story supertall office tower in the Hudson Yards district, dubbed The Spiral, so named for BIG’s staircase terrace motif.

This brings the tower further into the supertall territory, when before it was one foot above the official minimum of 984 feet, or 300 meters.

Now, interiors are once again being renovated, and will sit beneath an all-new 17-story addition atop the square-shaped structure.

With a grand and unprecedented presence in the Midtown skyline, Hudson Yards continues to stop tourists and locals alike, as steel and concrete continue rising into the sky.
