111 West 57th Street, a residential supertall tower with multiple global distinctions, completed construction recently in New York City.
"The final exterior cladding elements have been added to SHoP Architects' 111 West 57th Street in New York City, a supertall skyscraper that is both the world's skinniest and the second tallest in the Western Hemisphere," reports Ben Dreith for Dezeen.
"Located on what has come to be called Billionaires' Row in Midtown Manhattan, the SHoP Architects-designed tower reached supertall height in 2018, and with a height to width ratio of 24:1 is considered the world's skinniest skyscraper," adds Dreith.
The 1,428-foot-tall tower is now ready for residents to move in, according to the project's developers. More design details, construction history, and pretty pictures are available in the source article below.
