The 28th-tallest project on our year-end construction countdown is 1410–1418 Third Avenue, a planned 494-foot-tall residential skyscraper on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Designed by Robert A. M. Stern Architects and developed by Skyline Developers, the 34-story structure will yield 66 units and 2,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. Hill West Architects is the architect of record for the project, which is alternately addressed as 185 East 80th Street and located at the corner of Third Avenue and East 80th Street.
Demolition is steadily moving along on the five low-rise occupants of the plot. Some sections of the outer walls have been partially knocked down along the southwest corner since our last update in June, and crews are busily gutting the interiors. More signs of demolition should become visible throughout the upcoming winter months.

The below Google Street View image shows the abutting set of identical low-rise occupants before the start of demolition. Skyline Developers purchased the four adjoining structures along Third Avenue and a fifth building on East 80th Street for $16.6 million in late 2022.

The skyscraper is slated to house one to three apartments per floor, collectively spanning roughly 242,000 square feet. It’s unclear whether the units will be rentals or condominiums. Residential amenities will reportedly include a 23-vehicle enclosed parking garage, a fitness center, a billiards room, shared laundry room, and a pet care space.
The nearest subway from the ground-up development is the 6 train at the 77th Street station to the south along Lexington Avenue.
Finalized renderings and an anticipated completion date for 1410–1418 Third Avenue have yet to be released.

No renderings, not even a hint?..what are they waiting for, Robert Stern’s (R.I.P.) final approval?
In case anyone missed the notice due the holiday, Robert A. M. Stern died on Thanksgiving at age 86. He was widely lauded.
He was planning on retiring from his firm, this coming January.
“Some sections of the outer walls have been partially knocked down along the southwest corner…”. ? But the building is on the NORHTWEST corner. 185 East 80th Street is on the Northwest corner, NOT the southwest corner. What am I misunderstanding here?
Southern corner of the lot itself, NOT in relation to where the project stands at the intersection.
Every property has a North, South, East and West side. Does that help you understand the geography?
Brenda, if you look at a map of the site and look at the 4 cardinal directions, it’s exactly on the north side of the intersection.
But, the part of the article you pointed out is only talking about the location of the torn down walls within the property.
They already mentioned the overall sites location in the last sentence of the first paragraph.
Please read the article again to avoid confusion.
Whether or not the existing tenants were paid to leave, we shouldn’t be losing any rent-stabilized apartments. New replacement stabilized apartments should be built somewhere in the city for these new millionaire homes to be approved.
Hopefully Stern will stay the course
I don’t think he has a choice..
