I passed this project recently and it seems demolition is in full swing. The building permits have been filed but not approved.
New Tower Plan Headed for West 28th Along the High Line Curbed Monday, April 2, 2012 Crews are ripping up the roof of the former Club Quo at 511 West 28th Street, prepping the plot for a new batch of residences that will rise along both sides of the High Line, just west of Tenth Avenue. What's to come seems to be a rethinking of a prior plan from Lee Harris Pomeroy Architects, revealed back in 2009, originally a mix of hotel and residential with retail down below. The current plan is from Avinash K. Malhotra Architects for developer Kadima Tenth Avenue SPE; the hotel is now nowhere to be seen but the residential and retail remain. The zoning details are still pending, but the Schedule A on file indicates three separate components, with massing much like what was seen before. When it's all done, this will be a gateway, presumably in glass, a portal for park-goers passing through on their way to the mega-hood that Related and team envisions for the blocks to the north. Along the High Line at 28th Street a 14-story slab will rise with 44 units above and a pool in the cellar, all butting up to the ginormous Avalon West Chelsea project that's now digging down next door. Rising over West 29th Street will be a blockier 14-story stack, with 128 units above and parking for 59 vehicles (and 162 bikes) on the lower floors. Across the High Line, at the southwest corner of Tenth and West 29th, a 25-story tower will rise, holding 140 units. Down at street level and below the High Line retail will rule. Whatever architect Avinash Malhotra brings to the block, this will be a big change from the days when this was club land, and another Malhotra partied hard and pole dancing was the way to play. When this development is up along this stretch of elevated park where wildflowers bloom, some re-thinking may be necessary. Perhaps a shade garden will be in order.

So many projects just along the High Line, it's impossible to keep track of. This isn't one of my favorites, but still nice to see it moving along.

Agreed its not overly exciting, however I do like how it weaves between some of the existing buildings. Hopefully they remain in the future so this neighborhood isn't all new buildings.
Yeah this neighborhood is incredible. I count 5 buildings (including the Coach Tower) under construction within 3 blocks along the High Line. |
Yeah, there are a lot of buildings worth landmarking in the area. Hopefully as the area continues to gentrify the LPC will realize the need for protection and step in. Most of its pretty forgettable but it'd be shame to not preserve a lot of the old shipping warehouses, and clusters of classic low rise brick buildings.
Anyway, getting off topic. |
Nice shots of the site ILNY! I hope you don't mind me posting these. Looks like the site is cleaned up nicely. 2014 will be an active year on the West Side! :cheers:
Any chance you have a pic of the site east of the Highline where the 25 floor tower will stand? Photo Credit: ILNY @ Skyscraperpage Quote:

Surprise, this turned out to be quite nice building around 500ft tall. Under construction.

Wow! This has flown under the radar. Construction is pretty advanced. I had been wondering about this project and it’s good to see that part of the highline shaping up.
It is a 3 tower development, with 1 tall tower and 2 shorter towers. As per DOB: http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/Jo...ssdocnumber=01 While the NB application calls for the tallest tower to be 385’ tall with 35 floors, the diagram indicates a height of aprox 424’ which would include the parapet. The 2 shorter towers appear to be aprox 164’ each... I think. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...32c2d9dbc7.jpg https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...1e56c99a84.jpg https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...3e57ffa2af.jpg |

How is it that buildings of this size get built without a crane?
