Extell’s assemblage between East 79th and East 80th Streets in Yorkville, Manhattan, is inching closer to reality, with demolition permits now pulled for the bulk of the extant structures. The mixed-use, residential buildings set to meet the wrecking ball include addresses 1514 though 1528 First Avenue.
Construction is well underway for what will eventually become the Financial District’s tallest residential tower, a 64-story supertall at 45 Broad Street. Thanks to a reader providing an overview photograph, we can see that trucks are currently removing debris from the site, and reports indicate that concrete trucks are also moving in and out, indicating that excavation is now in full swing. Drilling for the foundational piers has already started. Pizzarotti LLC is responsible for building and developing the tower, along with Madison Equities and AMS Acquisitions.
Construction is moving along at 685 First Avenue, as it nears completion in Murray Hill, Manhattan. The 42-story tower has officially launched sales ahead of its anticipated opening later this year, or early next.
New renderings have been revealed for a 14-story mixed-use building proposed at 21-12 30th Road, in Astoria, Queens. The site is currently under environmental review by the City. Variety Boys and Girls Club is responsible for the development.
HAP Investment Developers has proposed updated designs for “HAP 7,” a sprawling 129-unit project in Fort George, Manhattan. Located on a corner lot at 4452 Broadway, the new, mixed-use building will rise 7 stories and contain nearly 88,000 square feet of residential area. While filings indicate a mixed-use function, the new permits do not detail an exact allocation of mixed use area.
