Plans have emerged for a 1.35 MSF life sciences and biotechnology center
along Manhattan’s east side. Proposed by Solow Realty & Development, the 35-floor building would rise at 708 First Avenue along Solow’s fallow
Turtle Bay South superblock. The new, state-of-the-art tower is being
designed by SOM, who was also responsible for crafting the 9-acre Turtle Bay South master
plan. So far, the only towers to rise on the original Con Ed footprint are
the American Copper Buildings and the nearly topped out 685 First Avenue.
