Smile NEW YORK | 1 Central Park North | 431 FT | 33 FLOORS

This is quite big for the area.

Rendering of tower at 1 Central Park North





Quote:
Unbelievably, a gravel parking lot sits at the prestigious corner of Fifth Avenue and Central Park North (110th Street). The empty lot is owned by La Hermosa Christian Church who has a 3-story sanctuary next door at 3-5 West 110th Street. The lot’s days may be numbered however with the publication of the rendering above by Jersey-based MV Architecture

The rendering shows a roughly 30-story tower that seems to have lost its way from Dallas circa 1986. Glass volumes are slightly rotated from one another and they sit on an opaque base which we are presuming will be a new sanctuary space.

The circular intersection is also known as Dulke Ellington Circle and features a statue of the jazz musician with his grand piano at its center. Whatever rises from the lot will have remarkable views down Fifth Avenue and over Central Park. The site is near One Museum Mile and 111 Central Park North which have both held the record for the most expensive condo sold in Harlem.
