BLOOMBERG BUSINESS February 16, 2016 Citadel Leases Anchor Space at New Tower on NYC's Park Avenue
February 16, 2016 http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-02-16/citadel-leases-anchor-space-at-new-tower-on-nyc-s-park- avenue Citadel Leases Anchor Space at New Tower on NYC's Park Avenue by David M Levitt Hedge fund firm Citadel LLC signed a lease to anchor a new skyscraper that’s under construction on Manhattan’s Park Avenue, the first new office building to be built on the pricey corridor in almost four decades. The deal, reached late last week, entitles the $25 billion firm founded by Kenneth Griffin to a little more than 200,000 square feet (18,600 square meters) of office space at 425 Park Ave., said David Levinson, chairman of L&L Holding Co., the developer of the 670,000-square-foot tower. The lease includes the penthouse floor, which will have 38-foot (12-meter) glass ceilings and views of Central Park. Citadel also will occupy the two floors below the penthouse and space in the center of the Norman Foster-designed skyscraper, Levinson said. It’s a “great relief” to have “a complete, closed transaction” with Citadel, given the current turmoil in the stock market, Levinson said in a phone interview. “For a financial company as good as they are, to make a deal like this with all the turbulence in the world, is a very strong statement for New York City, and their view of the world economically.” The lease helps validate L&L’s decision to start work on the new tower -- on the east side of Park Avenue between 55th and 56th streets – before having any tenant commitments, a process known as building “on spec” and that’s regarded as risky in the real estate industry. -

Complexity in Building Design
Complexity in building design Mahadev Rahman, Princeton University and Columbia University; Board of Directors, Arup Group, USA At the present moment, the complexity of building design seems best exemplified by the super structures towering over modern Dubai. But how did we get from the iconic stone buildings of ancient times to these glass and steel monoliths that stand up to 160 floors high? As the tools available to designers have become ever more sophisticated and the environmental performance standards ever more stringent, there seems to be an inevitable drive toward complexity in the design of buildings. Technological advances have also added additional stages to the construction process and in an industry where time is money; this can produce innumerable challenges for a design team. Yet as we’ll see, the new tools are actually optimizing the efficiency of the design process. 1 Historical Context Of course, historically, the construction of traditional, or vernacular, buildings was not simple either. But typically much of the risk associated with the process could be mitigated by the repetitive nature of these buildings, and the incremental way in which innovations in technology or process were incorporated. At a larger scale, the construction of the pyramids at Giza, the Parthenon, the Coliseum, the Sun Temple at Konark, the cathedral at Chartres, the Taj Mahal would all have been spectacularly complex processes, even by modern standards. However, even with these examples, each building represented the ultimate refinement of an architectural style, technology, and construction process perfected over many generations. Risk was managed by ensuring that the next building would essentially be the same as the last one with only minor innovations in technology and construction methodology (Figure 1). -

Chapter 5: Shadows
Chapter 5: Shadows A. INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the detailed shadow study that was conducted to determine whether the proposed One Vanderbilt development would cast any new shadows on sunlight-sensitive resources. Sunlight-sensitive resources can include parks, playgrounds, residential or office plazas, and other publicly accessible open spaces; sunlight-dependent features of historic resources; and important natural features such as water bodies. Since the preparation of the shadow analysis in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), the height of the proposed One Vanderbilt development was increased. The shadow analysis in this Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) has been revised to reflect this change including Figures 5-1 to 5-22 and 5-27. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS This analysis compared shadows that would be cast by the proposed One Vanderbilt development, which would be built to a floor area ratio (FAR) of 30, with those that would be cast by the 15 FAR building that would be developed absent the proposed actions (the 15 FAR No-Action building). As described below, the analysis concluded that the proposed 30 FAR One Vanderbilt development would cast new shadows on Bryant Park, the west windows of Grand Central Terminal’s main concourse and several other sunlight-sensitive resources. However, the new shadows would be limited in extent, duration and effects and would not result in any significant adverse shadow impacts, as demonstrated in detail below. B. DEFINITIONS AND METHODOLOGY This analysis has been prepared in accordance with CEQR procedures and follows the guidelines of the 2014 City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual. DEFINITIONS Incremental shadow is the additional, or new, shadow that a structure resulting from a project would cast on a sunlight-sensitive resource. -

1 The Citicorp Center Project: LeMessurier Stands Tall by Michael J. Vardaro, Esquire and Timothy F. Hegarty, Esquire When the Citicorp Center opened in 1978 it instantly became one of the defi ning icons of the New York City skyline. However, the engineering marvel had a dark secret—it would likely collapse if exposed to 70 mph winds. Once this secret became known, the structural engineer set into action a remarkable chain of events to stabilize the tower, preserve the client relationship, avoid litigation, and possibly save the lives of many. Perhaps even more remarkable is that all of this was done without the public’s awareness. What can be learned from what happened, and what never did? Introduction The Citicorp Center (now known as the Citigroup Center) is one of the most recognizable features of the New York City skyline.1 The distinctive 45° angled top rises 915 feet into the air. What many do not realize is that the base of the building is arguably even more distinct. The building sits 114 feet in the air, supported by an unusual placement of four huge columns centered, not on its corners, but rather on each of its sides that make the 59-story tower appear as if it is gracefully levitating above Lexington Avenue.2 The columns or stilts were anything but ordinary when they were designed to support what was then the seventh tallest building in the world.3 By all accounts, the use of the huge columns was a creative engineering marvel. However, they also led to a series of unforeseen events that nearly caused a catastrophe of monumental proportions. -
CITICORP CENTER (Now 601 LEXINGTON AVENUE
Landmarks Preservation Commission December 6, 2016, Designation List 491 LP-2582 CITICORP CENTER (now 601 LEXINGTON AVENUE) including SAINT PETER’S CHURCH 601 Lexington Avenue (aka 601-635 Lexington Avenue, 139-153 East 53rd Street, 140-160 East 54th Street, 884-892 Third Avenue), Manhattan Built, 1973-78; architects, Hugh A. Stubbins & Associates and Emery Roth & Sons Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1308, Lot 7501 (1001, 1002, 1005) On September 13, 2016, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of Citicorp Center (now 601 Lexington Avenue), including Saint Peter’s Church, and the proposed designation of the related landmark site. The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with provisions of law. Four people spoke in support of designation, including representatives of Saint Peter’s Church, Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer, the New York Landmarks Conservancy, and the Municipal Art Society of New York. The principal owner, Boston Properties, and the Real Estate Board of New York submitted written testimony in support of designation. Summary The former Citicorp Center is a major example of late 20th century modern architecture. Designed by Hugh A. Stubbins & Associates, in association with Emery Roth & Sons, this early mixed-use complex contains three interlocking buildings: a 59-story office tower, a 6-story retail-and-office structure, and Saint Peter’s Church. Commissioned by First National City Bank (now Citibank), the 915-foot-tall office tower is one of New York City’s most recognizable skyscrapers. Important for its slanted top, four “super” columns that rise over 100 feet and generous public spaces, it plays a major role on the Manhattan skyline.
