  Size: 170,000-SF/45 stories
  Completion Date: September 2010
   

Pavarini McGovern constructed the new hotel and luxury condominium high-rise building on a mid-block site on West 45th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues in midtown Manhattan.

The development of the new 45-story, 170,000-SF poured-in-place concrete structure included 166 hotel suites from the second to seventh floors, and 57 residential units on floors eight to 45. The program also included a shared lobby and business center at-grade, and a restaurant, lounge and mechanical space on the three levels below-grade. A metal pre-formed open-air pool with full enclosure and health center is located on the seventh floor set back. Mechanical space for the building is also located on the seventh floor.

The structure itself is quite interesting. The tower has an asymmetrical fenestration pattern and appears to sit atop a seven-story structural podium, setback approximately 15 feet at the seventh story, with a façade of aluminum composite panels, insulated glass units and operable awnings. The enclosure for the wider seven-story “podium” is a metal mesh screen with window wall behind it.

This project was enrolled in our national safety partnership program with OSHA.
