Early last century, industrial piers stretched up the Hudson River from the Battery to the Upper West Side. Most respectable New Yorkers shied away from the working waterfront and therefore lived toward the middle of the island. But in today’s postindustrial Manhattan, the West Side is a highly desirable—and expensive— place, home to residential developments catering to the well-to-do who want to live close to the waterfront and its now recreational piers.

Rutger Snoek 1 432 Park Avenue met de skyline van New York BAM Advies & Engineering bron: CIM Group Bronnen Bij de totstandkoming van dit artikel is gebruikgemaakt van: - Skylines, Designing Skyscraper Cities, WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff - The Magic of Making a Super-Tall Building, Joe Nasvik in Concrete Contractor Magazine - 432 Park Avenue, Structural Peer Review, Leslie E. Robertson Associates, R.L.L.P In 2006 kocht ontwikkelaar Harry Macklowe voor $ 440 miljoen het historische Drake hotel tussen East 56th Street en East 57th Street, ten westen van Park Avenue, om daar een toen nog geheim project te gaan ontwikkelen. In 2007 werd begon- nen met de sloop van het hotel. In de crisis raakte het bedrijf echter in de problemen en het verkocht het perceel in 2010 aan CIM Group. De twee ontwikkelaars besloten het project 432 Park Avenue samen verder te ontwikkelen en in september 2011 werd begonnen met ontgraven ten behoeve van de funde- ringswerkzaamheden. Eind 2015 werden de eerste appartementen opgeleverd en in 2016 zal het gebouw volledig gereed zijn. Ontwerp De bekende Uruguayaanse architect Rafael Viñoly maakte een sober ontwerp op basis van een vierkante modulemaat, dat naar eigen zeggen is geïnspireerd op een geperforeerde metalen prullenbak die in 1905 door Josef Hoffmann werd ontworpen (fig. 3). Consultants van WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff verzorgden het ontwerp van de constructie en de installaties.

  • CITYREALTY NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT MANHATTAN NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT May 2015 Summary
    MAY 2015 MANHATTAN NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT CITYREALTY NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT MANHATTAN NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT May 2015 Summary Apartment prices in new development condominiums in Manhattan have increased at a fast clip, a trend boosted by the upper end of the market. Sales of new condominium units included in this report are expected to aggregate between $27.6 and $33.6 billion in sales through 2019. The average price of these new development units is expected to reach a record of $5.9 million per unit in 2015. At the same time, far fewer units are being built than during the last development boom, in the mid-2000s, therefore the number of closed sales is expected to increase more modestly than their prices. 2013 2014 2015-2019* TOTAL NEW DEVELOPMENT SALES $2.7B $4.1B $27.6B-$33.6B+ Pricing information for the 4,881 new development units covered in this report comes from active and in-contract listings, offering plans, and projections based on listing prices. For a complete list of buildings included in this report, see pages 5-6 (New Developments by Building Detail). Ultimately, sales of these apartments will total roughly $27.6 to $33.6 billion through 2019. Sales in new developments totaled $4.1 billion in 2014, up 50 percent from 2013. The 2013 total, $2.7 billion, also represented a significant increase from the $1.9 billion recorded in 2012. While total sales volume has increased in recent years, it is still substantially less than at the height of the market, in 2008, when new development sales totaled $10.4 billion.

  • The Cityrealty 100 Report 2020
    THE CITYREALTY 100 REPORT 2020 DECEMBER 2020 THE CityRealty is the website for NYC real estate, providing high-quality listings and tailored agent matching for pro- spective apartment buyers, as well as in-depth analysis of the New York real estate market. 1100 THE CITYREALTY 100 REPORT 2020 About The CityRealty 100 The CityRealty 100 is an index comprising the top 100 condominium buildings in Manhattan. Several factors—including a building’s sales history, prominence, and CityRealty’s rating for the property—are used to determine which buildings are included in the index. This report tracks the performance of those buildings for the one-year period ending September 30, 2020. CityRealty releases regular reports on the CityRealty 100 to track the change in prices of the top 100 Manhattan condo buildings. After falling in 2018 from all-time highs achieved in 2016 and 2017, the index’s average price / foot and total sales volumes were roughly flat in 2020 as compared to 2019, with the average price per square foot increasing 2% to $2,649. For the 12 months ending Sep 30, there were 846 sales which accounted for $4.94B in sales volume. Manhattan real estate, as viewed through the lens of this report, focuses on the city's top tier of buildings, which are seen as a relatively stable and good investment. The stagnation in prices and volume, especially in buildings not new to the market, reflects a market that has been saturated with high-end product, and prices in the 3rd quarter of 2020 reflect an overall downward trend.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE PSYCHIC VALUE AND URBAN REGENERATION: HOW AND WHY SIGNATURE ARCHITECTURE AFFECTS REGIONAL ECONOMIES ALEXANDER GROSEK SUMMER 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Finance with honors in Finance Reviewed and approved* by the following: Christoph Hinkelmann Clinical Associate Professor of Finance Thesis Supervisor Brian Davis Clinical Associate Professor of Finance Honors Adviser * Electronic approvals are on file. i ABSTRACT Focusing on buildings designed by winners of the Pritzker Prize for Architecture, I create a sample of 509 buildings-designed-by-signature-architects (BDSA) in the United States. This yields 170 metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) that contain 509 BDSA. Drawing on U.S. Census data from 2010 – 2019, 13 economic data points are collected for each MSA in the sample, yielding 2,210 initial data points. The same 13 data points are collected for each of the 37 states where at least one BDSA currently resides, yielding an additional 481 unique data points Finally, the same 13 data points are collected for the U.S. economy as a whole. This data is sorted using basic weighted-average calculations to measure the relationship between the number of BDSA and the regional economic performance of the group of MSAs containing those BDSA, weighted by the number of BDSA in each city. The BDSA-weighted average of these economic statistics is then compared to the state and national averages for the same economic indicators. The results of this study show that the 170 regions under analysis have BDSA-weighted economic indicators that, when viewed together, demonstrate significantly more robust regional economic environments than the population-weighted average statistics for the 37 state economies in which they reside and the national average for the U.S.

  • Brochure-53W53.Pdf
    A modern view 53W53 is the most architecturally significant addition to the New York skyline in recent years. A gracefully tapered, 1,050-foot-high tower rising above The Museum of Modern Art, 53W53 represents a bold artistic and technical achievement by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Jean Nouvel. The elegant, refined interior spaces of the 145 private residences are designed by noted architect Thierry Despont. Complementing Nouvel’s innovative design, these homes offer a 21st century vision of the gracious urban living for which New York is celebrated. 7 The architecture of 53W53 embraces a decidedly modern point of view. Its innovative exposed structural system, known as the diagrid, gives the facades of Nouvel’s tower a distinctly angular rhythm, which, when combined with floor-to-ceiling windows, creates a unique architectural context through which to view Central Park and the Manhattan skyline. 9 The Museum of Modern Art is one of the most respected cultural institutions in the world. Among its collections of modern and contemporary art, design, photography and film are seminal works by globally recognized artists including Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet, Willem de Kooning, Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, Donald Judd, Cindy Sherman and Jeff Koons. 53W53 has the unique distinction of being integrated into MoMA’s architecturally distinguished urban campus. Joining existing wings designed by noted architects Philip Johnson, Cesar Pelli and Yoshio Taniguchi and a planned addition by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel’s tower gives MoMA a sculptural presence on the New York skyline. – The Museum of Modern Art Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden Modern Foundations 11 Three new gallery levels will be created within the base of 53W53, to be accessed from and connected with the museum’s existing exhibition spaces.
