More exciting news from the West Side…..Another new building is being planned by Gary Barnett, developer of One 57, at the Hudson Yards, the mega development north of West Chelsea experiencing a revolution mostly because it will be connected to Times Square by the # 7 subway extension and to West Chelsea and the Meatpacking District via the Highline Park. (More evidence that a major infrastructure investment can fuel mega-development.)
Extell has hired Jones Lang LaSalle to find tenants for the 56-story, 1.7 million square office tower to rise on the east blockfront of 11th Avenue between W. 33rd and 34th streets, just across the Street from the Javits Center…..of course this will not be built unless they can secure a topnotch major tenant…..we shall see….
