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.

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.

One of the most important reasons driven the achievement is the continuously evolvement of structural systems. In this paper, previous classifications of structural systems are summarized and different types of structural systems are introduced. Besides the structural systems, innovations in other aspects of today's design of high-rise buildings including damping systems, construction techniques, elevator systems as well as sustainability are presented and discussed.
