Boo. This should site should be a 1500+ ft office tower that fills the entire block.

The 1971 office tower 22 Cortland Street is a dump and needs to go.

Close to 2 million sq-ft can be built. At a minimum, this will be over 300m if they decide to utilize the potential. If they can offer competitive rates ($/sq-ft) to compete with Midtown rentals, its a good proposition. The rental market is hot, and DT is booming. Has added over 80,000+ residents since 9/11.

The affordable units component helps too. Those units are like winning the lottery if you get one.

IMO any way you look at it, something at the very least substantial is set to rise here.

BTW: For the metrically challenged

(yours truly)

300m = a shade over 984'.

Nice shots, Yank.

The little white building is coming down too.

Oops. If I had known I would've included it in my shot. This is such a wasted opportunity, everything on this block facing Broadway needs to go.

Apparent rendering found on YIMBY Forums. Still a missed opportunity as everything on this block facing Broadway needs to go.

Which is another avenue they are pursuing. Large tenants are limited as we can see with the WTC. There is always demand for small office leases.

Blame NYC zoning. This whole area with so much mass transportation should have FARs in the 30's, instead it is probably in the 10-12 range (or maybe even less?).

It's all right. They will eventually all go. I actually prefer mulitple buildings on a block than one that takes up the whole block.

The most ridiculous element of all of this is that all that buildable air space is wasted because the MTA didn't plan for the incorporation of the subway entrance into the base of a high rise development. Can anyone imagine something like this happening in Hong Kong or London?

scalziand · #32 Posted **Jul 27, 2018, 1:09 PM**

I'm still grumbling that the MT can't sell airrights from the Fulton Transit Center across the street since they took the property for it with eminent domain or something.

Permits Pre-Filed For 35-Story Tower At 185 Broadway In The Financial District

Quote:

Permits have been pre-filed a 35-story mixed-use high rise at 185 Broadway in Manhattan’s Financial District. This is the largest development filed for the area in 2018, at least, so far. The site is located right in the center of the neighborhood, near just about every major train line on the subway system, with the Fulton Street transport hub situated across the street. SL Green Realty is responsible for the project.

The 404-foot tall structure will yield 242,000 square feet, with 37,240 square feet dedicated to commercial use, and 164,600 square feet for residential use. 279 apartments will be created, averaging 600 square feet apiece, indicating relatively affordable rentals. Retail shops will occupy the cellar to the second floor, with a health club occupying the third, fourth, and fifth floors. Two floors of amenities for shared use will crown the structure.

FXCollaborative Architects will be responsible for the design.

Demolition permits have not been filed, and the estimated completion date has not been announced.

That area should be office, not residential. You've got subway and PATH all in that area. What a waste. More dumb city zoning that no one bothered to re-evaluate.
