description

The building is being built directly on New York's famous Steinway Hall . 111 W. 57th St. is designed purely as a residential tower. As you can see from the address, it will be on 57th Street, which is currently experiencing a real construction boom of super skyscrapers. Among other things, on 57th Street there are future monoliths such as the One57 (306 meters, completed), 217 West 57th Street (472 meters, under construction), 432 Park Avenue (426 meters, completed) or the 220 Central Park South (290 Meters, under construction). According to current plans, the building will be 435 meters high and have 91 floors. It was designed by the architectural office SHoP Architects , which z. B. designed the Barclays Center in Brooklyn . The architecture of the skyscraper is special: with a height-to-width ratio of 1:24, the tower would be the slimmest building in the world.
