45 Park Place Williams New York
Spring is just around the corner, which can only mean one thing: the real estate market is about to pick up, and quickly. And of course, that can only mean one thing for Curbed NY: it’s time to look at the many, many, many apartments—both rentals and condos—that will be hitting New York’s real estate market in the next few months. Across more than 40 developments, there are starchitect-designed buildings (your Viñolys, Meiers, and SHoPs among them) and apartments in some of the city’s most anticipated megaprojects, along with under-the-radar outer-borough rentals and “affordable” apartments. It’s a lot to take in, and as always, if we missed anything, the tipline is right this way.
45 Park Place
Soho Properties head honcho Sharif El-Gamal has been trying to develop this site, along with its next-door neighbor at 51 Park Place (most famously known as the proposed site of the “Ground Zero mosque,” aka Park51), foryears. And it looks like he’s finally getting there: Sales are due to launch on 45 Park Place, a 43-story skyscraper, in April. The building will have just 50 one- to four-bedroom condos (starting at $1.9 million) when completed; a new Islamic cultural center and museum, designed by Jean Nouvel, is also part of the final design.
