That would be nice, because at that point the platform is above both the High Line and street level. Haven't seen any real ideas on it.

Just think Park Avenue viaduct where it starts at 105th. Something like that but even taller would be gorgeous.

The landscape arthictects are supposed to be the same. Hopefully they will get it right.

I'm curious on the unit amount that will ultimately rise. It will be in the 1000's, but I wonder how many. :D

This site is good for the MSG in 2023. ;)

That's state property. There have been a few different ideas on what to do with it, but as far as I know, nothing concrete yet. The state is supposed to be moving the truck yard.
But I think there should be at least one office tower built directly west of 55 Hudson.

If you look at one of Related's older site plans, you see a plan for a mirrored development of the railyards just to the south. I would be surprised if Related got their hands on that lot.

The gray area next to 34th street is owned of Javits Center.

Yes, everything highlighted in yellow there is owned by the state. The truck yards that currently occupy the site are being moved as part of the current Javits renovation.

This part reminds me a bit of the Lakeshore East development in Chicago.

The second phase of construction at Hudson Yards will push westward, from 11th to 12th Avenues, between West 30th and West 33rd Streets. A platform over the train yard in that area will be built next year, Mr. Ross said. Plans for that space include five apartment buildings, a public school, parks and an office tower, which are expected to be finished by 2026.

That's correct.

This graphic doesn't reflect design but shows placement of towers.

Platform construction is expected to begin 1Q 2020.

I assume the actual tower designs will be released in the near future, but who knows. They hired individual building architects years ago, so they probably have the designs ready.

when are the official/final renders going to be released?
it has got to be sometime soon.

Second phase of Related’s Hudson Yards development stalled by LIRR
POSTED TODAY, AUGUST 9, 2019 BY DEVIN GANNON

As Related Companies CEO Stephen Ross continues to face backlash for throwing a fundraiser on Friday for President Donald Trump, his company is dealing with some drama of its own. Plans submitted a year ago to the Long Island Rail Road for the second phase of the Hudson Yards development have still not been approved by the agency, the New York Post reported.

The plans call for a platform to be constructed over the western portion of the railyard. Without the platform, construction cannot begin. While the reason for the delay is not clear, a source told the Post that “Related pushes them every week,” to approve the project’s plans.

“LIRR and MTA are working with Related to help them develop a design that satisfies their obligation to preserve life-safety and operational flexibility for the LIRR at Hudson Yards,” a representative with the MTA told the Post.

A similar platform had to be built over the eastern side of the railyard for the first phase of the Hudson Yards development, which opened in March. Ross and Related had hoped to work on the second phase platform by the end of the year, but without approval from the transit agency, the project cannot move forward.

The next phase, which involves the area from 11th to 12th Avenues between West 30th and West 33rd Streets, includes bringing six new buildings that will offer space for apartments, office space, and retail. The project, expected to be completed by 2024, also includes a K-8 school.

As far as I can remember, the western platform was always going to rise higher than the High Line, the rails are at street level.



https://therealdeal.com/2020/01/13/n...700-foot-wall/

Next phase of Hudson Yards could include 700-foot-long wall
Related says any discussions about it are “very, very preliminary”

The second phase of Hudson Yards could include a 700-foot-long wall.

Stephen Ross’ Related Companies is considering elevating the deck of the yard by several stories to accommodate a parking garage below it, according to the New York Times. This means the site would rise up rather than slope down toward the Hudson River, which would create a wall right next to the High Line spanning 700 feet and standing two stories above the park. The wall would at least visually obscure public access at the High Line.
Quote:

...the possibility of the wall has already drawn the ire of several local politicians, including Manhattan borough president Gale Brewer and City Council Speaker Corey Johnson.

“Hudson Yards is already considered elitist,” Brewer told the Times. “People wonder, is that for me? Getting people of color to use these places is hard enough. This is the worst sort of planning.”



https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/10/a...expansion.html

Hudson Yards Promised a Park. They Didn’t Mention the Giant Wall.
For phase two, the developer imagines a 700-foot-long structure overshadowing the High Line. “The last thing New Yorkers need is a wall,” a state senator said.







From original planning...
