Harry Macklowe wants to build an office tower near St. Patrick’s Cathedral Materials show vision for 1M sf skyscraper, but without partner or many acquisitions https://s14.therealdeal.com/trd/up/2...klowe-1200.jpg By Mark Maurer and Konrad Putzier June 21, 2018 Quote:

^Jeez, in that location and with 15 foot ceilings, I think this tower would command some of, if not the most expensive price per square foot office rent in the city

Well, start breaking ground already..............

Another one! :cheers:
This looks promising. Anytime you hear up to a million, thats 1,000,000 of sq-ft, at least 15 foot ceiling heights, and a large base... that ladies and gentlemen is the primordial soup of a Manhattan super-tall. They even added the seasoning to the soup by adding "world-renowned designer". NYC will become the super tall capital of the world soon. I can say this because its not luck that causes it, but the land and the economic situation as a result of land constraints and price/sqft to develop. When you add the margins needed to make a tower successful, it equates to some serious height. This will accelerate. Amen! :tup: |
How tall would this be, roughly? 1,500 ft. range?
I mean, Olympic Tower, just to the left, is something like 620 ft. This looks easily 2.5x the height. |
The mass model depicting the parcel looks similar to CPT in dimensions. CPT for example is 1.2 mil-sq ft, being residential but with a large grand entrance if you will. This being an office tower.
I'd estimate 1400 ft on the conservative side for this based on that mass model. Key word is "if desired". So lets say a super-tall does occur utilizing 1 mil sq-ft, my gut feeling is 1400 ft. Although for all we know, some sort of spire or crown design could definitely push this upwards. 1 mil-sq ft on those sites with office functionality at a minimum would break the 300m threshold, so its a win-win overall. |
Good looking buildings with nice ground floor shops are targeted of course. To be replaced with parking garage entrance, loading dock, useless lobby and a plaza.
9 E 51 St is particularly stunning. |

Not sure what is useless about lobbies and loading docks. Those are kinda inherent in every type of sizable building (including those to be demolished). |
9 East 51 is beautiful. But something tells me Venezuela could use the money. They already sold 11 to the Chinese and it's landmarked so that at least isn't going anywhere.

We're still a ways off, but this would be a boutique type office building with smaller floor plates, and high rent. It would be in the upper class of office buildings, not for tenants looking for a deal.
Don't know who the architect would be, but we've been spoiled with nice things in the area. I would at least hope this is something great. This is about a half block from whatever renovations they are doing at 666 5th Avenue, and just a few blocks from Chase's planned supertall tower. https://therealdeal.com/2018/06/21/h...cks-cathedral/ Quote:

Wow, another one! The site is a bit limiting of the building shape - I hope that doesn't hinder the design. Could this one cantilever over the adjacent shorter buildings?

Looking forward to seeing a tower with a roof height comparable to Central Park Tower rising here. Hopefully Macklowe doesn't totally drop the ball here by forgetting to add in a nice crown or spire, or having Vinloy design it.

Wonder who that is, but whoever it is, I hope they have in mind this site calls for something special. Still waiting to see what Chase is going to hit is with. |

An indication of how close a tower here (on the left) would be to Chase's new tower at 270 Park Avenue...

Yes, and I think that the new Macklowe tower will be tall as 432 Park Avenue.;)

Of course Vinoly is going to design it. We're talking about Harry "how cheap can we build this thing" Macklowe here. |
