NEW YORK | 460 Tenth Ave | FT | 40 FLOORS

The design is mediocre, but I’d be elated to get rid of the crappy empty lot on which this building will rise.

Sherwood Equities plans 40-story condo at 460 Tenth Avenue, just north of Hudson Yards

Despite its still low-key stature, Tenth Avenue is the busiest of the West Side avenues due to its direct flow from the West Side Highway at 22nd Street, running north as Amsterdam Avenue (after 59th Street) to St. George Hill in Washington Heights. With Ninth Avenue already getting a fair share of infill developments over the years, including a mix of rentals, hotels, and more recently, some condos, developers are turning their sights beyond the Dyer Avenue cut to Tenth Avenue, In recent years, this area has been further ignited by the completion of the first phase of Related-Oxford's Hudson Yards and Brookfield's Manhattan West complex.
In the years to come, the avenue will see at least two major towers: 460 Tenth Avenue, a long-planned condominium project steered by Sherwood Equities, and 360 Tenth Avenue, a state-of-the-art, Class A office tower conceived by McCourt Global. While the timeline for the 360 Tenth Avenue office remains unclear, with the paddle players of Reserve Padel still in full swing, five blocks north, between West 35th and 36th streets at Sherwood appears to finally be moving forward on a 40-story residential tower to deliver over 200 condominium residences in addition to ground-floor retail and underground parking.

Construction permits have yet to be filed, but according to the developer, the project is now in the design phase with Handel Architects helming the design. The first renderings, published on Sherwood's website, depict a standard tower-on-podium massing, which local zoning prescribes. The boxy form will be articulated by multi-pane windows overlaid by a grid of masonry-colored vertical and spandrel elements placed every two floors. The overdone design feature is meant to hide the building's true height, but usually only makes the building more confusing to comprehend (Sutton Tower) while clashing with its neighbors on the skyline.

that looks a lot better than mediocre.

[Busy Bee]

Agreed. This looks pretty good to me and I'm thrilled the corner buikding is staying.

[colemonkee]

This looks very handsome to me. Handel generally does very solid work, if not the most high profile or memorable work.

[ChiND]

The windows are beautiful, as is (what appears to be) Terra cotta, but the shape is boring. Setbacks would have been nice.

[NYguy]

Not bad. At least it's not just another blue glass building on the west side.
