JCDA subsequently worked with Grimshaw as well as Arup, which was tapped as prime consultant to the MTA in 2003, to bring the idea to life. While Carpenter did not origi- nally picture it as such, budgeting dictated approaching the hypar as a purely tensile structure. Arup reverse-engineered tensile forces and node positions according to Carpenter’s preferred geom- etry by executing more than 113 iterations of a computational model. Next, modeling yielded the unstressed length of each cable segment, along with 1,056 x, y, and z coordinates that would ultimately position the 952 infill panels into 17 rows.

  • Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity in the News
    Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity In The News Virtual Restaurant Business Revolutionizing Traditional Food Delivery The growing convenience of home food delivery through services such as Seamless and GrubHub has prompted the launch of what can be best described as “virtual restaurants.” One company Green Summit Group currently operates 2-kitchens and boasts 8 “restaurant” brands, yet is void of any storefronts. The business model is banking on the projection that most New York City dwellers won’t care or realize that the food is not being prepared in a traditional restaurant. Green Summit has eliminated the burden of managing retail spaces, while also further benef ting from its ability to shift menu items more quickly to cater to the fast-evolving preferences of consumers by creating another online-branded “restaurant” that appeals to the f avor of the moment. If a particular brand does not meet f nancial expectations it is easily scrapped, incurring a relatively low cost of failure. Currently in expansion mode, in addition to existing kitchens in Midtown and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the Green Summit plans to open 4 additional kitchens in the Financial District, Downtown Brooklyn, the Upper East Side, and the East Village in 2016 in order to be within delivery range of 90% of New York’s online food-ordering population according to the company’s projections. Generating about $10 million in revenue in 2015, expansion plans are reportedly expected to triple revenue in 2016. Success of the company launched about 2 and a-half years ago may be short-lived in the opinion of some skeptics of the virtual model, pointing out that consumers want to engage with the restaurant brand.

  • The Fulton Center: New York City, NY, USA Authors Design of the Cable Net Zak Kostura Erin Morrow Ben Urick
    Location The Fulton Center: New York City, NY, USA Authors design of the cable net Zak Kostura Erin Morrow Ben Urick Introduction At the corner of Fulton Street and Broadway, one block east of the World Trade Center site and two blocks south of City Hall Park, 11 New York City subway lines converge in a hub serving over 300 000 transit riders daily. With their dense tangle, these lines have evaded efficient connection for nearly a century, a legacy of disparate planning and construction practices common to the era of competitive, privatised transit operation — and despite being unified under a single state agency in 1968. In the aftermath of September 11, 2001, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) enacted plans to redevelop this hub into an efficient transfer point, replacing the labyrinth of corridors, retroactively constructed to link existing lines, with an efficient system of pedestrian mezzanines, concourses and underpasses, complete with elevators and escalators to comply with the provisions of the Americans With Disability Act (Fig 2). And at the corner of Broadway and Fulton, the MTA planned a spacious 1.

  • Review of the a and C Lines
    Review of the A and C Lines ,. December 11, 2015 Page intentionally left blank AC Line Review Executive Summary Executive Summary The attached report provides a comprehensive review of operations on the A and C lines. Combined, the two lines serve 800,000 riders a day across three boroughs and connect to many of the most important intermodal hubs in New York City. The A differs from most other New York City Transit subway lines in that its route splits three ways at its southern end in eastern Queens. It is also exceptionally long, at 32 miles between 207 St and Far Rockaway-Mott Av. Like many other subway lines, it merges several times with other lines. The combination of these traits tends to reduce reliability. In contrast, the C is a shorter line scheduled to run less frequently than the A and many other lines. C service is relatively reliable, even though it has historically been assigned some of the oldest cars in the system. This review has been prepared within the context of NYC Transit’s service planning procedures, and all discussions of service levels take into account established guidelines for designing and scheduling service. NYC Transit determines how many trains run on a given line based on a number of factors, including line capacity, equipment availability, and the Rapid Transit Loading Guidelines. The Guidelines ensure that limited resources are equitably allocated throughout the system by establishing, by time of day, maximum passenger load levels and minimum service frequencies, where operationally feasible. The Guidelines are applied by evaluating average ridership levels at locations where trains are most heavily loaded (“peak load points”) to develop recommended service frequencies, where operationally feasible.

Hidden Cities: Reinventing The Non-Space Between Street And Subway Abstract The connections leading to underground transit lines have not received the attention given to public spaces above ground. Considered to be merely infrastructure, the design and planning of these underground passageways has been dominated by engineering and capital investment principles, with little attention to place-making. This underground transportation area, often dismissed as “non-space,” is a by-product of high-density transit-oriented development, and becomes increasingly valuable and complex as cities become larger and denser. This dissertation explores the design of five of these hidden cities where there has been a serious effort to make them into desirable public spaces. Over thirty-two million urbanites navigate these underground labyrinths in New York City, Hong Kong, London, Moscow, and Paris every day. These in-between spaces have evolved from simple stairwells to networked corridors, to transit concourses, to transit malls, and to the financial engines for affordable public transit.

  • L&L Holding Co. Completes $275 Million Recapitalization of 195
    L&L Holding Co. completes $275 million recapitalization of 195 Broadway, renovated office and retail building December 17, 2019 - New York City Manhattan, NY According to L&L Holding Co., it has completed a two-step recapitalization of 195 Broadway, a historic and renovated office and retail building. In the first part of the transaction, L&L formed a new partnership with Samsung SRA Asset Management and Korea Investment Management backed by institutional and retail investors, replacing institutional investors advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management which exited its 98% stake in the redeveloped property. Under the agreement, L&L Holding will continue in its role as managing partner and leasing agent for the 1.1 million s/f tower. The deal valued the building at $475 million. Concurrent to the building acquisition, L&L Holding sold the land beneath 195 Broadway to New York-based REIT Safehold, Inc. for $275 million. The recapitalization occurred less than three years after L&L completed a renovation and redevelopment that transformed the building’s historic William Welles Bosworth-designed lobby into a magnificent retail galleria. As part of a broader $77 million redevelopment, L&L created three commercial spaces, each separated by 40-ft. tall glass partitions and a galleria pass-through connecting the stores to the streetscape and to the building’s tenant lobby. The galleria is home to restaurant Nobu Downtown and retailer Anthropologie. “We are grateful for our partnership with J.P. Morgan Asset Management, which shared our vision for the historic restoration and adaptive reuse of 195 Broadway’s magnificent landmark lobby,” said Yong Cho, senior managing director of L&L Holding.
