432 park ave Building

432 Park Avenue is a stunning skyscraper that when built was the tallest in the city without a spire as well as the tallest residential tower.  It is 1,396 feet high with 96 floors and 104 condominium apartments.

Harry B. Macklowe and the CIM Group were the developers.

Raphael Viñoly, the architect of the bulbous 20 Fenchurch Street tower in London that is known as the Walkie-Talkie building, was the design architect.  SLCE was the “executive” architect. 

Interiors were designed by Deborah Burke, Bentel & Bentel, which is the firm that designed 11 Madison Park restaurant and Gramercy Park Tavern, Lilla J. Smith and Harry Macklowe.

The building, which is on the northwest corner at 56^th Street and goes through to a large mid-block site on 57^th Street, was scheduled for completion in 2015 but in the summer of 2014 it towered over all other buildings in midtown.
