3 Hudson Boulevard (previously known as GiraSole) is a proposed skyscraper along the Hudson Park and Boulevard in the Hudson Yards and Hell's Kitchen neighborhoods of Manhattan, New York City, United States. Construction on the skyscraper is in progress, but has currently been paused. The project's developer is Joseph Moinian. [2] [3]

History and development

FXFOWLE Architects designed the building, which is planned to have 2 million square feet (190,000 m2) of real estate.

Construction was supposed to begin in 2015, [4] with the building's completion planned for 2017. [4] [5] [6] The building, directly across Eleventh Avenue from the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, would abut the secondary entrance to the new 34th Street – Hudson Yards subway station, built as part of the New York City Subway's 7 Subway Extension project. [7] [8] Consequently, the foundation was built by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority because the subway station is directly underneath; the rest of the building would be built by Moinian Group. [9] The foundation works started May 2016. [10]

On June 26, 2014, Joseph Moinian secured a loan for the construction of the building. [7] A groundbreaking ceremony for 3 Hudson Boulevard occurred in November 2017, [11] [12] at which point the planned building's height was reduced to 940 feet (290 m). [13] In addition, Joseph Moinian sought $3 billion in debt and equity to fund the tower. [14] [15]

In an interview with Commercial Observer , Ted Koltis of The Moinian Group said the firm had begun "speculative" construction of the project in early 2022. [16] However, in late 2022 New York YIMBY reported that construction on the building was on hold. [17]

Energy efficiency

The developers of the building are hoping to get a LEED Platinum certification for the building when it is completed, owing to its eco-friendly design. [4] "Green" strategies include wind harvesting, rooftop farming, heat recovery, solar shading, photovoltaic electricity, regenerative elevators, Energy Star-efficient appliances, ice storage, and natural lighting.
