  • August 11, 2020 Times Square Tower Will Light up New Tomorrow for Manhattan
    August 11, 2020 Link to Article Times Square tower will light up new tomorrow for Manhattan L+L Holding Company is pushing ahead with its landmark Times Square development, TSX Broadway. With an entire facade embedded with LED lights, the building is set to become the world’s largest billboard when it opens in 2022. Located in one of the world’s most visited tourist destinations, drawing some 50 million visitors a year, the development could serve as a beacon of light to a post-COVID New York as it works to recover from a pandemic that has grounded both locals and tourists that were the lifeblood of Times Square. “While Times Square is quiet today as the City continues the hard work of recovering from COVID-19, significant ongoing construction progress at TSX Broadway serves as a reminder that Times Square has a bright future,” said David Orowitz, Managing Director at L&L Holding Company. “The addition of Times Square’s first outdoor stage, coupled with a 580-foot tall sign display, innovative experiences to be revealed inside TSX Broadway and new performances at the renowned Palace Theatre will usher in Times Square’s next era in the post-pandemic world.” The existing 29-year-old building at 1568 Broadway is being demolished using a technique that requires hardening of the building’s elevator shafts to create debris chutes to allow for easy removal of the structure. Demolition of the former DoubleTree Hotel has reached the 23rd floor level and the installation of the T5 truss, the far western X brace, has commenced and is currently at level 4.

Festival marketplaces, historic districts and restored waterfronts have familiar elements in new urban typology of place and integral components of many citys' urban redevelopment strategies. In places like Faneuil Hall and South Street Seaport historic architecture provides the stage set for the reconstruction of an image that is rooted in the past but which has been redeployed for new commercial uses. The image of Times Square as the neon-lit backdrop for fantasy and desire has been a unique and enduring icon of American popular culture.
