NEW YORK | Waterline Square | 478 + 429 + 397 + 245 FT | 38 + 36 + 34 + 25 FLOORS
Surprised we don't have a dedicated thread for this large project.

Wow I can't believe this flew under the radar and is already well into the construction phase.
Looks like NYC SSP'ers have too many projects to keep tab of! Very clean lines with some nice nuances. Very nice project!! |
this was originally Riverside Center (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...verside+center), so it's been around for a bit. Two buildings were built as Riverside Center (One West End Ave and 21 West End Ave), but the rest of the buildings in the mega development changed hands and they started back up rapidly.

From yesterday, by me... looks like cladding has started!

Midtown West and MW North have numerous towers that were built in the last 5-10 years. The whole area has changed, and a bulk of new Manhattan towers have been in this general region. To prove this, check out aerials comparing the West Side 10 years ago vs now; along with tower addresses built in the last 5 years (over 100m). Midtown is headed in three trajectories in my view.
1) Expanding ever so fast towards the West, right to the Hudson. 2) Spilling over to Queens on the East side with LIC 3) Moving South past 33rd onto 20th street. And at an accelerated rate, especially on or around 5th and 8th Ave. Meanwhile, downtown (Lower) is expanding 1) Northeast towards LES. Somewhat creating a pincer formation between the areas separating two CBD's. At the way its going, Manhattan will down the line have what appears like one massive, Midtown like area when the major skyscraper nodes touch from a tower perspective. |

Some more shots of this under the radar development...
NY is one of the few cities were something this size can really go unnoticed unless you have the knowledge of it or stumble upon it. Overshadowed by everything else rising. :D https://static1.squarespace.com/stat.../?format=1500w https://static1.squarespace.com/stat.../?format=1500w https://static1.squarespace.com/stat.../?format=1000w Credit: FC |
A pleasant surprise, this is a big cut above riverside south. A while ago after hearing about the changing of architects from Portzamparc for the individual towers I'd written this off as another Solow/coned site kind of development- doomed to be watered down and turned to boxes- But they've really kept the spirit of the master plan.
|
This project is like a miniature Hudson Yards (multi-tower, oriented toward the river). I believe there is even a Amtrak line crossing somewhere under there. My understanding is that the architects that took over the designing buildings from Portzamparc had to stay within the envelope approved through ULURP, which is why they have retained their interesting shapes. Looks good!
|
Yup, the Amtrak line/future Metro North line runs right under this property. The trains are mostly in a tunnel from Penn Station up through Upper Manhattan, though there are some gaps, still.
One day, there will probably be a Metro North station somewhere in the vicinity, which will be huge for these new homeowners. |

A baby Hudson Yards rising. Daytime view.
