Construction Update: FRANK 57WEST Rises On The Far West Side

7:30 am on December 28, 2015 By Evan Bindelglass

If you’ve gone up the West Side Highway in Manhattan or up Port Imperial Boulevard in New Jersey, you’ve probably noticed the Durst Organization-developed Bjarke Ingels Group-designed Via tetrahedron. Not only is it visually striking, there has been a fair amount of press coverage. Additionally, its next-door neighbor, the high-rise Helena has been there for a decade now. But they are not the only Durst developments on the block bounded by Eleventh Avenue, West 57th Street, Twelfth Avenue, and West 58th Street.

54-Story, 33-Unit Residential Tower Rises At 520 Park Avenue, Upper East Side

6:30 am on December 28, 2015 By Reid Wilson

YIMBY partially revealed schematics back in 2013 of Zeckendorf Development’s planned 54-story, 33-unit ultra-luxury residential tower at 520 Park Avenue (formerly 45 East 60th Street), in Lenox Hill. Later that year, demolition wrapped up on the site’s old low-rise structures. Since then, work has focused on building the project’s foundation. In recent months, however, the tower has finally begun to rise, as seen in these photos by Tectonic, and concrete is now being poured for the fourth floor. Robert A.M. Stern Architects is designing the limestone-clad structure, which will eventually host some of New York’s most opulent condominiums. Completion is currently expected in 2017.

Property owner Thomas Mulzac, doing business as a Brooklyn-based LLC, has filed applications for two four-story, multi-unit residential buildings at 766-768 Macon Street, in Ocean Hill, located three blocks from the Halsey Street stop on the J train. Each one will measure 4,983 square feet each, although one will contain four units and the other will have five units. Across the entire development, units will average 1,107 square feet apiece, which means both rentals or condos may be in the works. Michael McCaw’s Brooklyn-based McCaw Michael Ivanhoe Architect is the architect of record.
