Inside the new ultra-towers set to transform the NYC skyline in the coming years

Last fall, JPMorgan Chase’s 2.5 million-square-foot trophy, Foster + Partners-designed tower opened at 270 Park Ave. Six months on, the city’s first all-electric tower, aka Jamie Dimon’s Man Cave, is still inspiring fresh and innovative deals.

That’s because C-suiters now realize that having a technologically modern and healthy workspace is good for recruitment, retention, bragging rights and the bottom line.

The largest new tower now in the works is 175 Park Ave. next to Grand Central Terminal. It will rise 95 stories (1,519 feet) and house 3.02 million square feet, including a Hyatt hotel on floors 83 to 90. (The top five floors are mechanical).

It’s still seeking an office anchor for its base, but it’s developers, RXR and TF Cornerstone, are banking on a design by Skidmore Owings Merrill — which also did 1 WTC and 7 WTC — to attract top tenants.

........The rest of the towers on the drawing board may not be ready until years later, but tenants with expirations in the 2030s are already exploring their options.

Just look at Societe Generale: its lease at 245 Park Ave. expires in 2032, but it’s already kicking the tires for a 500,000-square-foot slot at Vornado’s Penn 15; RXR’s 175 Park; or BXP and Moinian’s 3 Hudson Blvd.
