History and development
It is expected to rise 53 floors and 987 feet (301 m) in height.[2] FXFOWLE Architects designed the building, which is planned to have 2 million square feet (190,000 m2) of real estate.
Construction was supposed to begin in mid-2014[5] or 2015,[6] with the building's completion planned for 2017.[5][6][7][8] Completion was rescheduled for 2022.[2] The building, directly across Eleventh Avenue from the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, would abut the secondary entrance to the new 34th Street – Hudson Yards subway station, built as part of the New York City Subway's 7 Subway Extension project.[5][9][10] Consequently, the foundation was built by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority because the subway station is directly underneath; the rest of the building would be built by Moinian Group.[11] The foundation works started May 2016.[12] A groundbreaking ceremony was held November 3, 2017.[13]
On June 26, 2014, Joseph Moinian secured a loan for the construction of the building.[9] A groundbreaking ceremony for 3 Hudson Boulevard occurred in November 2017,[14][15] at which point the planned building's height was reduced to 940 feet (290 m).[16] In addition, Joseph Moinian sought $3 billion in debt and equity to fund the tower.[17][18]
In an interview with Commercial Observer, Ted Koltis of The Moinian Group said the firm had begun "speculative" construction of the project in early 2022.[19] However, in late 2022 New York YIMBY reported that construction on the building was on hold.[20]
Energy efficiency
The developers of the building are hoping to get a LEED Platinum certification for the building when it is completed, owing to its eco-friendly design.[6] "Green" strategies include wind harvesting, rooftop farming, heat recovery, solar shading, photovoltaic electricity, regenerative elevators, Energy Star-efficient appliances, ice storage, and natural lighting.[6][10]
Floors
The top two floors are set aside for a conference center, or executive or cafeteria dining. The office building will also include 12,600 square feet (1,170 m2) of retail.[2]
