What does 900 feet look like?
December 18, 2023
Quote:
I wanted to get a reference for other 900-foot-tall residential buildings in the neighborhood and Fidi, and there are not many. For comparison on the commercial side, One World Trade is 1776. 4 World Trade is 978. 7 World Trade Center is 741.
The proposal for the new tower for Independence Plaza has it clocking in at 940 feet, with 100 x 100-foot floors in the tower, which would be set on a wider base at the street level. Here are the heights of the other buildings on the Washington Market Urban Renewal Area in descending order:
111 Murray — 792 feet
Citi — 496 feet
101 Warren — 428 feet
Bank of New York Mellon — 361
Independence Plaza — 356 feet
200 Chambers — 301 feet
And some more residential buildings in the neighborhood and in Fidi for reference. Only 125 Greenwich, the Rafael Viñoly-designed residential tower just south of the World Trade Center, crosses the 900-foot line. (That building is 455,815 square feet and will have 243 units.)
56 Leonard — 796 feet
Woolworth Building — 792 feet
One Wall Street – 654 feet
45 Park Place (stalled out) — 667 feet
125 Greenwich (under construction still) — 912 feet
One Manhattan Square — 847 feet
8 Spruce Street — 827 feet
