Description: The Spiral is a 66-floor skyscraper under construction in Hudson Yards, New York City. The project was announced in 2016 by real estate developer Tishman Speyer as a 1,041 foot skyscraper with 2.85 million square feet and 66 floors. The tower was designed by Danish architectural firm Bjarke Ingels Group, which also designed the nearby West 57. The Spiral will be located on 34th Street between Hudson Boulevard and Tenth Avenue. When completed, The Spiral will join other developments made possible by rezoning, including Hudson Yards, 3 Hudson Boulevard and Manhattan West. A distinguishing feature of the proposed building is that each floor will have outdoor gardens that will spiral around the building. Construction on the tower commenced in 2018, and as of June 2020 the Spiral stands at least 25 stories tall. The Spiral will greatly complement the Hudson Yards in New York's skyline along the Hudson River. ▶ Subscribe to the official skyscraper channel: youtube.com/channel/UCcFaTlM1tGV5IYLRv0CeOrw?sub_confirmation=1 Follow Skyscrapers & MegaProjects: ▶ Instagram: instagram.com/skyscrapers_future ▶ Facebook: facebook.com/megaprojectsandskyscrapers
