    Kushner and Ironstate acquire a trio of old buildings on the Fifth Avenue corner at West 30th Street

    In 2012 Kushner Real Estate Group and Ironstate Development bought a row of three older buildings on Fifth Avenue, numbers 277, 279 and 281. They planned a 40-story, 132,000-square-foot high-end condominium designed by HWKN Architects. That scheme was never built: the site was sold in 2014 and a taller tower by Rafael Viñoly replaced the earlier buildings.

    Viñoly's tower with open-air loggias wins a tall-building award

    Rafael Viñoly Architects gave the 55-story tower a series of double-height open-air loggias that look carved out of the building, along with column-free residential floors. It holds 130 condominiums, with retail on the lowest two levels and a landscaped terrace on Fifth Avenue. The project earned LEED Silver certification, and in 2019 the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat named it Best Tall Residential or Hotel Building.
