This office building, designed by KPF and occupied by brands like L’Oreal and Coach, has been open since 2016.

One of several residential buildings in the Related-Oxford Hudson Yards complex, 15 Hudson Yards was designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro in collaboration with the Rockwell Group (with Ismael Leyva Architects as the architect of record). Residents, who started moving in earlier this year, have access to posh amenities on the tower’s 50th and 51st floors, which include a coworking area, a private dining room, a screening room, wine storage, a 75-foot swimming pool, a gym curated by the Wright Fit, and even more. (There’s also a sky-high outdoor terrace near the top of the building.)

The tallest of the towers that make up Related's parcel, 30 Hudson Yards began construction in 2015, and is expected to wrap in late 2019. Once complete, the building will rise 1,296 feet and will have tenants like Time Warner Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, and DNB Bank. This tower is being designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox, and will feature Edge, a 1,000-foot-high outdoor observation deck that opens March 11.

This McDonald’s-replacing tower is still several years away from completion, and will be one of the last projects to finish in Related and Oxford’s first phase of development. The Norman Foster-designed tower, located at the corner of West 34th Street and 10th Avenue, will rise 58 stories and have offices and retail. It will be the city’s fourth largest commercial tower when it’s complete.

This 780-foot office tower is designed by KPF. Its facade—a combination of glass and matte metal—is meant to evoke the architecture of New York’s famed cast-iron building. Tenants began moving into the building in early 2019, and it will be home to firms like Arosa Capital Management; Boies, Schiller & Flexner; Cooley LLP; and Engineers Gate.

This seven-story retail behemoth will have 25 different restaurants by a host of celebrity chefs including Thomas Keller, David Chang, and José Andrés. Big-name retail in this high-end shopping center includes Neiman Marcus, Coach, and Stuart Weitzman. There will also be an interactive experience by the design firm Snarkitecture. The building was designed by KPF with interiors by Elkus Manfredi.

The most unique feature of this multi-disciplinary arts center is an extendable outer shell—a temperature-, light-, and sound-controlled space that can host of a variety of performances. The six-story performance and exhibition space debuted on April 5 with several notable commissions; it’s currently hosting a retrospective featuring the work of conceptual artist Agnes Denes.

The High Line Spur—which runs above 30th Street and culminates in a large open space that hovers above Tenth Avenue—finally opened to the public this summer, seven years after the Friends of the High Line, the nonprofit that oversees the park, first revealed designs for it. The Spur also includes a section known as the High Line Plinth, which will feature large-scale art installations; the first one, Simone Leigh’s Brick House, will be on display for the next 18 months.

The tallest of the structures within the eight-acre Manhattan West megaproject, One Manhattan West is officially open for business. The 995-foot-tall SOM-designed office tower will have 67 stories and 2.1 million square feet of office space. It’s 90 percent leased, with the NHL, the law firm Skadden, Arps, and more signing on for space in the building.

In the Manhattan West megaproject, a new hotel operated by the luxury Pendry brand will open in 2021. The hotel will have 164 rooms, and will be located in a building designed by SOM. Amenities for guests will include a restaurant, terrace, and conference rooms. Construction kicked off in 2018. 

Work is now well underway on the conversion of the James A. Farley Post Office building into the Moynihan Train Hall. Construction kicked off in 2016, and made steady progress last year as the state prepped the site for what will eventually be a 255,000-square-foot train hall with nine platforms and 17 tracks. The train hall is part of the overall redevelopment of Penn Station into the Penn-Farley Complex. A new concourse that connects the post office building to the existing Penn Station opened in 2017.

Moinian Group’s supertall was supposed to be one of the first buildings to rise at Hudson Yards, but the developer broke ground on the project in November 2017. The developers were waiting for the MTA to finish infrastructure work on the 7 train extension before moving forward. The FXCollaborative-designed tower will rise 940 feet, and will offer nearly 1.85 million square feet of office space, and close to 15,000 square feet of retail.

Tishman Speyer also owns this development site, which has about 1.3 million square feet of buildable space. However, the firm has not moved forward with any plans for the site since announcing its assemblage in 2016.

The Chetrit Group originally wanted to sell this prime Hudson Yards site, but changed its mind and filed plans for a 46-story building in September 2016. The low-rise buildings on the site have since been demolished. Plans filed with the DOB list CetraRuddy as the architect, and the 622-foot building will have a hotel with 421 rooms, and 131 condos above that. As of December 2018, Chetrit had received an $85 million loan for the project.

Despite being announced in 2014, this project has yet to get moving. The land is owned by the Port Authority, and in 2014, a developer was willing to pay $115 million for this site and adjacent property. That deal fell through, and in 2016, the agency announced a nine-story building at the site with 24 apartments.

Former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer is partnering with Related Companies on a two-building project at this site and 511 West 35th Street. The developers filed plans for the 1.4 million-square-foot mixed-use development in February 2017. As it stands right now, a 400-unit residential building (it will have some retail and commercial space too) will rise at the corner of West 35th Street and Tenth Avenue. That will be followed by a 950,000-square-foot office tower at West 35th Street and Hudson Boulevard East.

Silverstein Properties once planned a 1,100-foot tower at this site. That plan was officially scrapped in favor of two smaller buildings in January 2017. Silverstein filed plans for one of the two towers—at 520 West 41st Street—in 2017, but as of now, no plans seem to exist for the site.

Former Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt purchased this site in 2014 for $167 million. Soon after that, SHoP Architects were brought on board to design a massive residential and retail tower at the site. The project was estimated to cost $3 billion, but work has yet to begin at the site.

After spending $83 million on this site back in 2007, Rockrose Development announced plans for an office and residential complex. The residential component will have 600 apartments, and Rockrose hopes to begin construction this spring. The office tower could span 1.3 million square feet.

A group of tenement buildings at the corner of 10th Avenue and West 37th Street will be transformed into 98 affordable apartments, a 74-seat theater, retail, and the Hell’s Kitchen Community Center. The project is being developed by the Clinton Housing Development Company, and construction is expected to wrap in 2020.
