RFP Submitted for NYC Supertall

418 11th Avenue. Designed by David Adjaye of Adjaye Associates.

While concrete details remain unconfirmed, the first request for proposal (RFP) submission for the site of a future supertall north of Related Cos.’ Hudson Yards complex has been unveiled, New York YIMBY reports. The 1,500-ft-tall building would become one of the tallest towers in NYC by both architectural and roof height, on the site of the former Hudson Spire proposal. Sir David Adjaye of Adjaye Associates is the architect, while developers include Deryl McKissick, The Peebles Corporation, Exact Capital Group and the Witkoff Group. The envisioned master plan would sit on a 1.2-acre lot, dubbed “Site K,” at 418 11th Avenue. The plans call for a total of two hotels, an observation deck, a skating rink and commercial office space that includes future headquarters for the NAACP. No commencement or completion dates have been announced.
