Tishman Speyer tower at Hudson Yards is Spiral-ing up


By Steve Cuozzo
January 24, 2021


Quote:
It’s topping-off day Tuesday for The Spiral, Tishman Speyer’s $3.7 billion, 66-story Hudson Yards District skyscraper, beribboned with a band of cascading, landscaped terraces and hanging gardens.

It’s a milestone for the 1,041-foot-tall tower and for Tishman Speyer President/CEO Rob Speyer, who steered the project from the outset. But a greater satisfaction might be that its first signed office tenant was Pfizer Inc. — the pharmaceutical giant that produced a COVID-19 vaccine in record time.

“Pfizer’s team are the true heroes of COVID,” Speyer said. “We couldn’t be prouder.

“We were proud when we first signed the lease with them,” he said. “Now we’re over the moon.” Ground was broken soon after the signing in the long-ago summer of 2018. Pfizer is moving from several old buildings in the East 40s.The Spiral, or 66 Hudson Blvd., is designed by Bjarke Ingels Group architects. It takes up the whole block bounded by 10th Avenue and the Hudson Boulevard to the west, and by West 34th and 35th streets.
Quote:
The spiraling rings of greenery will both energize and soften the corporate, curtain-wall façade. Once the terraces are planted in the spring of 2022, the tower will stand strikingly distinct from the harder-edge giants at Related Cos.’ Hudson Yards complex to the south.

After Pfizer signed on for 800,000 square feet of The Spiral’s 2.85 million square feet, two more large tenants came on board: Debevoise & Plimpton LLP and AllianceBernstein, bringing the project to just over 50 percent leased.

That’s another way of saying it’s nearly 50 percent NOT yet leased — a challenge in the pandemic-ravaged market that several other ground-up developers face as well.

“We’re over 50 percent leased, and we have more than a year and a half to deliver,” he pointed out. (The Spiral is to be finished in the third quarter of 2022; Pfizer’s expected to move in soon after). “We have several conversations going with companies that are broadly representative of the city’s commerce.”
Quote:
Normally, the first tenant to sign up for a new office building gets a better deal than those that follow. But the coronavirus upended that pattern, as developers must work harder to lure tenants to fill their remaining space in a climate of corporate downsizing and fear.

Terms of Spiral’s first three tenants have not been disclosed. But will Tishman Speyer offer better terms to tire-kicking future tenants?

“We haven’t lowered our asking rent,” Speyer said. But he seemed to leave wiggle room. “We will work with our customers to make it work for everyone. We’ll work with them to make a fair deal for everyone.”

Speyer predicted a big increase in leasing volume once the virus is hopefully brought under control by September. “Remember, many companies have delayed [real-estate] decisions pending the resolution of the pandemic.” he said. “That naturally creates pent-up demand.”

I was thinking 2022 seemed far off and then I remembered we’re in 2021....

Last year was such a drag.

Yeah, time moves fast. These things are always closer to us than we think because of that.

Tishman Speyer tops out The Spiral









by REW
January 27, 2021


Quote:
Tishman Speyer President and CEO Rob Speyer was joined on Tuesday by Gary LaBarbera, President of the Building and Construction Trades Council of Greater New York, Peter Davoren, President and CEO of Turner Construction Company and a group of trade partners to celebrate the official topping out of The Spiral, Tishman Speyer’s 1,031-foot-tall office tower currently under construction on the West Side of Manhattan.

Once it reaches completion in 2022, The Spiral will feature a cascading series of landscaped terraces and hanging gardens as its signature element. The terraces will ascend, one per office floor, in a spiraling motion to create a unique, continuous green pathway that wraps around the façade of the tower. The BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group-design ensures that each tenant on every office floor will have access to lush outdoor terrace space.
Quote:
ishman Speyer has already pre-leased 51 percent of The Spiral’s 2.8 million square feet of modern collaborative office space.

Pfizer, the biopharmaceutical company that recently co-developed the first Covid-19 vaccine approved for use in the U.S., will move its global headquarters to 746,000 square feet across 14 floors of the 65-story tower. Renowned law firm Debevoise & Plimpton LLP is also relocating its headquarter to 13 floors totaling 531,000 square feet, while AllianceBernstein has committed to 166,000 square feet across three-and-a-half floors for its New York City offices.

“The Spiral represents the ideal collaborative workspace, now more important than ever, combining sustainable design with an elevated hospitality experience,” said Rob Speyer. “The continued rise of The Spiral is a testament to our vision and optimism for New York City’s future. I am grateful to Gary, Peter and their teams for partnering with us on a plan that kept their members working and construction on schedule, while also safeguarding everyone’s health and well-being over the past year.”

“The milestone reached today is a testament to the hard-working union men and women of New York City, who – despite the extraordinary challenges of the past year – have gone above and beyond to get the job done,” said Gary LaBarbera, President of the Building and Construction Trades Council of Greater New York. “With the success of this project and the value that a union workforce brings to construction projects more clear than ever, we look forward to building and expanding upon the relationship with Tishman Speyer on future projects. The topping-off of The Spiral is yet another sign that New York’s future will always be bright.”
Quote:
Located at the intersection of the High Line and the four-acre Bella Abzug Park, The Spiral will encompass a full block stretching from West 34th to West 35th Streets and from 10th Avenue to the park.

The Spiral, which is being built to a LEED Gold Standard, will feature soaring ceiling heights complemented by floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive views of Midtown, Central Park, the Financial District and the Hudson River.

The six-story base of the building will include a lobby with ceiling heights of up to 28 feet and entrances on Hudson Boulevard East and 10th Avenue. The base also will include approximately 25,000 square feet of first-class retail.

I wonder how this concept would have worked on the Spiral...given the need for office space, probably not good at all...

Trees will die quickly at those heights on the NYC Spiral. Extremes of wind, moisture, and temperature (not to mention lack of suitable substrate) will ensure that.

Architects really need to stop plopping them on their renderings to make them seem "green".

Will it really though? There are higher elevations in New York with trees. The trees here won't be installed until next year, but if they're putting them there, I'm sure they've taken everything into account.
