Check Out a Bonkers Proposal for Gary Barnett’s 1,250-Foot Broadway Tower

And old proposal left over from the "competition", but I thought we'd at least put out where it came from...

Supertall Mixed-Use

Location: Confidential
Phase: Competition
Size: 1,281,000 sf

SHoP's design for this signature tower combined a five-star hotel, luxury residences, and retail and commercial space. The building optomizes efficiency in the core and floor plates, maximizes views, and accommodates a beautiful and iconic outer shell. The distinct program areas were stacked; amenities such as a spa/fitness center with swimming pool, ballroom, and restaurant/bar are inserted in between these program areas. These amenity spaces offered dramatic views in all directions.






















Not too surprising to me...
