Hines, the international real estate firm, had selected Jean Nouvel as the designer for this building slated for a key parcel in midtown Manhattan, adjacent to The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA).
Here are some details from the preliminary architectural design.
Nouvel’s bold design will rise 75 stories from the
17,000-square-foot-site between 53rd and 54th streets just west of
MoMA.
Currently, a mix of uses is contemplated for the building
including: a 50,000-square-foot expansion of MoMA’s galleries (levels
two to five); a 100-room, seven-star hotel and 120 highest-end
residential condominiums on the upper floors.
The project will likely
commence pre-sales in late 2008.
