Undulating tower glass tower with canted, gridded facades coming to Hudson Yards site


Architects DSM Design Group and Marx Development Group have unveiled renderings for an undulating glass tower slated for New York City's Hudson Yards.

The 487-foot tower design differs markedly from previous iterations of the project, which displayed more conventional and monolithic glass skin designs. The latest version of the tower, according to a rendering published by New York YIMBY, features a skinny, undulating body wrapped in canted gridded glass facades. Stacked in two-floor modules, the cuboid tower appears to move as it rises, reflecting the sky and its surroundings in slightly oblique compositions. The lower levels of the building contain a series of protruding double- and triple-height volumes .

New York YIMBY reports that excavation for the project's foundations are well underway and that the structure will eventually contain a 531-room hotel. Additionally, the site reports that the project is due to be completed in the fall of 2022.
