Today’s podcast news podcast is sponsored by elevatorbooks.com: www.elevatorbooks.com SKINNIEST BUILDING IN THE WORLD CLOSE TO COMPLETION IN NYC 111 West 57th Street, a 1,428-ft-tall residential building on Billionaires' Row in Midtown NYC, is on pace for completion in 2020, New York YIMBY reports. Designed by SHoP Architects and developed by JDS Development, Property Markets Group and Spruce Capital Partners, the supertall is the skinniest building in the world, with a height-to-width ratio of 24:1. Its terracotta and steel façade has reached the bottom of its steel crown. Interiors of its 46 condominiums will be designed by Studio Sofield and marketed by Douglas Elliman. The source observes that, in addition to its slenderness and height, 111 West 57th Street is "the most prominent example of new skyscrapers incorporating classic architectural stylings, with its Art Deco curtain walls on the eastern and western elevations."
