"The concept for the new design was to create a timeless addition to Park Avenue, which celebrates the city's iconic architectural history and serves as a powerful new symbol for the next generation of office towers in New York," explained Foster + Partners. Its exterior styling is, like KPF's recent One Vanderbilt, meant to pay homage to NYC's proud architectural history and will feature a distinctive stepped design that's also raised slightly to improve views on the ground.
