Project data

Location: New York, New York, United States

This 52-story mixed use residential tower on midtown Manhattan’s far west side includes 300 dormitory rooms and 598 rental units. It includes a 10-story commercial podium with a massive transfer girder system over a swimming pool, to accommodate residential column layouts, and a 90’ high atrium at the second floor, below the swimming pool and girder system. For perimeter protection the contractor chose PERI LPS Light Protection System, using 20,000 ft² of the LPS screen and 1,500 ft² of loading platforms. The 45’ tall units climbed the building as construction proceeded.

Requirements
