Ana Bertuna, vice president of design and construction at Related Companies, said her firm is laying the groundwork for technology that may not yet exist at its Hudon Yards site. Bertuna is overseeing the building of Tower C which will be anchored by the new headquarters for the handbag maker Coach.

At Hudson Yards, multiple towers will sit on a platform built above the rail yards. The space below that platform could become the nerve center for a smarter complex of buildings, she said. “We’re designing infrastructure within the building and platform without knowing what’s going in there,” Bertuna said. “At some point, something is going to interconnect.”
