It's 111 W. 57th St, aka the Steinway Building. It's also referred to as Steinway Tower.

Yes. This isn't being built as a separate tower, but an alteration to an existing building. That's why there are no "new building" permits. The new shaft also rises partially from within the pre-existing structure. It's basically all one building.
