56 Leonard Street, United States of America

Offset-arranged floors and countless cantilevered balconies required a detailed formwork and enclosure concept.
The Swiss team of architects, Herzog & de Meuron, designed the exceptional, 250 m high residential tower in Manhattan.
RCS climbing protection panel units provided perimeter safety with strongly cantilevered slab tables.
The safety of site staff and passers-by is of utmost importance
Since its completion at the end of 2016, 56 Leonard Street is now one of the highest apartment buildings in the United States
Looked at from certain angles, the viewer gets the impression that the building consists of building blocks or boxes stacked on top of each another.

Информация за проекта

Местоположение: New York, САЩ

  • 250-meter high residential tower in Manhattan with almost 60 floors
  • 145 exclusive apartments
  • 10 penthouses

The Swiss architecture firm, Herzog & de Meuron, outfitted the building with a striking design. More than 300 irregularly arranged balconies protrude from the glass facade; in some places, the floors are inwardly offset. This creates the impression that the individual floors are stacked on or moved into one another.
