Construction on CetraRuddy's supertall tower in Downtown Manhattan is postponed indefinitely
Work has halted on the 45 Broad Street skyscraper in Downtown Manhattan by New York architecture firm CetraRuddy, which was expected to become the second tallest building in the area.
Developer Madison Equities said that the construction of the supertall building, which began September 2017, was stopped due to "short-term conditions in the Lower Manhattan market".
When asked for clarification and the expected date to restart, Madison Equities declined to comment.
"Due to short-term conditions in the Lower Manhattan market, we have decided to delay on constructing the building in the near future," the developer told Dezeen.
Initially planned to reach 1,115 feet (340 metres), 45 Broad Street will now reach a lower height when construction resumes. Madison Equities said the skyscraper was reduced by 80 feet (24 metres) to accommodate Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. Department of Buildings (DOB) plans have been filed for the design, with a full New Building (NB) permit.
45 Broad Street's new height still places the tower in the supertall category, which ranges from 980 feet (300 metres) to 2,000 feet (600 metres). Local construction company Pizzarotti is also no longer involved, Madison Equities said.
CetraRuddy's Downtown Manhattan design was unique in comparison to other glazed high-rises as it features thin bronze lines that stretch up its glass facades, in reference to the art deco movement.
