Project Summary:
From Rock to Top Some of the world’s most iconic tall buildings live in New York and have become symbols of this City. They owe their shape, recognition and height to the unconquerable Manhattan bedrock. It is on this foundation that Central Park Tower dares to reach new heights, a shimmering beacon of glass, steel, ambition, and aspiration. Located on Manhattan’s Billionaire’s Row and steps from Central Park, the tower’s vast footprint offered the unique opportunity to design a structure of enormous strength and great elegance. This new architectural landmark rises 1,550 feet above New York City, establishing it as the tallest residential building in the world. Elegant and graceful, its strong presence positions Central Park Tower as a powerful and poised statement along the Manhattan skyline. https://centralparktower.com/
