Podium work is progressing for Madison House, an 8 Podium work is progressing for Madison House, an 805-foot-tall residential skyscraper at 126 Madison Avenue and the tallest structure in the Midtown district of NoMad. Alternately addressed as 15 East 30th Street, the 62-story tower is designed by Handel Architects and developed by Fosun Group and JD Carlisle and will yield 199 condominiums with sales and marketing led by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, as well as 7,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space. Madison House has a footprint stretching between East 30th and 31st Streets and Madison Avenue. Madison House is currently more than 50 percent sold with over $300 million in sales, and occupancy is expected to begin this winter. Photographs by @mchlanglo793 show work on the main tower nearing completion, while construction has now shifted to the retail podium on the opposite northern side along East 31st Street. Excavation work has begun where this part of the property served as the main staging area for workers, trucks, and deliveries throughout the construction of the skyscraper. There is also a subtle one-story extension of Madison House that runs parallel along Madison Avenue. The first set of homes in Madison House will sit 150 feet above street level, and range from one- to four-bedroom layouts with 11-foot-high ceilings. Prices vary from around $1.775 million to around $25 million, and residents have access to over 30,000 square feet of amenities. Madison House is scheduled for completion this year.

New plans have been presented to Chicago's Committ New plans have been presented to Chicago's Committee on Design for 210 N Morgan Street in West Loop, a New Castle-developed, Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture-designed residence. The site is currently partially occupied by a vacant one-story building and a parking lot. Rising 33 stories and addressed as 210 N Morgan Street, the edifice will top out at 380 feet with a massing conceived through multiple light and shadow studies and sight-lines from the neighboring Fulton Market Historic District, and takes cues from surrounding historical buildings. The podium staggers in height and will include an outdoor patio for the 4,500-square-foot ground-floor retail space, infilled parallel parking spaces, new seating, and a public bike air pump. Public bike racks will also complement the activated streetfront with a glass lobby taking up the remaining indoor floor space. An entrance to the two-level parking garage will hold 50 vehicles and 150 bicycles above the first floor. The tower above would yield 204 units made up of 500- to 530-square-foot studios, 630-square-foot convertibles, 760- to 965-square-foot one-bedrooms with a den option, and 1,025- to 1,170-square-foot two-bedroom apartments. Residents have access to amenities such as a communal kitchen, fitness center, lounge and co-working space, and outdoor deck on the fourth floor, and a large amenity space with rooftop pool and outdoor space on the 33rd floor. Balconies will also line the majority of the south facade for larger units and the north facade above the 27th floor setback for the remaining height. 20 percent of the units be affordable housing. No formal timeline or cost was revealed, but stay tuned for updates on Chicago YIMBY.
Construction is wrapping up on the Virgin Hotel, a Construction is wrapping up on the Virgin Hotel, a 38-story tower at 1225 Broadway in NoMad. Designed by Stantec and developed by Lam Group, the 476-foot-tall, 300,000-square-foot structure will yield 460 hotel rooms managed by Sir Richard Branson of Virgin Group. Flintlock Construction Systems, LLC is the general contractor for the building, which is bound by Broadway, West 29th Street, and West 30th Street. Photographs by @mchlanglo793 show almost all of the remaining gaps in the glass curtain wall having been filled in and podium work is drawing to a close. We can now see glass railings and practically all the floor-to-ceiling glass units installed on the podium section. The wraparound sidewalk scaffolding and construction fencing and barriers should finally be removed before the end of the year. as well as seeing the iconic red logo placed somewhere close to street level. Photographs of the western elevation show the reflective metal panels running the height of the building and surrounding a protruding glass volume that will likely be part of the amenity offerings. These upper levels will provide guests with panoramic vistas of the Midtown and Lower Manhattan skylines, as well as direct views of the nearby Empire State Building. Few details about the interiors have been revealed, though it’s been reported that the Virgin Hotel would boast an outdoor swimming pool with lounge areas, 90,000 square feet of retail space, and an underground 22,000-square-foot golf store called “Swingers: A Crazy Golf Club.” No finalized completion date for 1225 Broadway has been announced, however YIMBY predicts the property to open sometime in early 2022.

Safra National Bank is moving forward with their p Safra National Bank is moving forward with their plans to develop 3050 Aventura, a 12-story office building slated for 3050 Northeast 199th Street in Aventura, Florida. The 200-foot-tall structure is designed byFoster + Partners with ODP Architecture & Design as the architect of record. The City of Aventura granted the bank approvals for the project, allowing for the redevelopment of the site that is currently improved with a 2-story building occupied by Safra. Plans for the new building calls for the development of 113,650 square feet of office space along with two basement levels for parking. Renderings of the structure depict an inverted pyramid-like superstructure enveloped in a glass curtain wall. The 12-story tower is dressed with striking vertical and horizontal metallic lines, resembling the aesthetic of a diamond or some type of crystal. The design falls in line with the common traits of Foster’s buildings, often making great use of angled or inclined concrete columns. Site work is now underway for the new building as the demolition of the former wraps up. A schedule or time frame for construction has not been announced but Florida YIMBY will keep a close eye on this exciting project.
One hidden architectural gem in NoMad is the Gilse One hidden architectural gem in NoMad is the Gilsey House, an eight-story building addressed as 1200 Broadway and located at the corner of Broadway and West 29th Street. The edifice was once a former 300-room hotel upon its completion 150 years ago and still stands as one of the most charming and elegant buildings within the Midtown neighborhood that's witnessing an ongoing hotel and residential construction boom. Directly across Broadway is Rafael Vinoly's Ritz-Carlton hotel and residences, while to the right of the photograph is his other NoMad skyscraper, 277 Fifth Avenue.

The tower is being developed by 710 Edge LLC, a collaborative effort between several developers including Michael Konig, Alex Posth, Louis Birdman and Kevin Venger.

The tower will be clad in dark tinted laminated glass, dark grey anodized aluminum and clear glass handrails along the balconies. 70 units will be spread across 342,848 square feet, with each level featuring one or two residences at the most. The majority of the residences will begin on the 10th floor. The top floor will have a 1,025-square-foot event lounge and sky lobby offering unobstructed vies of Biscayne Bay and Miami Beach. A heliport will be perched atop the roof at 650-feet. Find out more about this exciting project on Florida YIMBY.
Looking south at the Lower Manhattan skyline durin Looking south at the Lower Manhattan skyline during golden hour. Herzog & de Meruon's 56 Leonard Street in Tribeca and Skidmore, Owings & Merrill's One World Trade Center in the neighboring Financial District are the most prominent skyscrapers in the skyline from this perspective. It will be nice to one day hopefully see Norman Foster's revamped supertall design of 2 World Trade Center come into view between these two New York icons and reshape the skyline. No finalized renderings have been released, but YIMBY will keep an eye out for that architecturally and historically long-awaited moment. Photograph by @mchlanglo793
