565 broome soho | Renzo Piano

565 Broome SoHo will be constructed in one of New York’s most historic neighborhoods - Soho. Overhanging the Hudson River, the residential tower will offer to its occupants an outstanding panoramic view on the city and on the river. This project will be in line with the district’s spirit, being historically a center for arts, but also more recently for restaurants, shops, hotels and local businesses.

For SoHo, a district so closely identified with 19th and 20th century castiron architecture, 565 Broome SoHo will introduce an elegant 21st century inflection onto that neighborhood.

The 30storey structure will soar above its lowerslung surroundings, providing sweeping views of the city and of the Hudson River, including the sunsets that color the river and the harbor every evening. It will be almost 100 meters tall and will contain a total of 115 apartments, which will have all floorto ceiling windows. The accommodations will include studios, fourbedroom homes, as well as duplexes and penthouses.

Two most notable aesthetic traits of this building are the mullions and the curved glass. The thin mullions will let a visual narrative to take place around and within the structure, allowing for breathability and light to enter into all the residences’ floortoceiling windows. The corner curved glass will give to certain residents this particularly unique view.

As a result of collaboration, the project is shared between Renzo Piano Building Workshop on the one hand & SLCE - in charge of both forms and facades - and the Paris design firm RDAIin charge of the interior design - on the other hand.
