With Matt Postal

Highlights include 53 West 53, a multi-spire residential tower by Jean Nouvel, the 53rd Street branch of the New York Public Library by Ten Arquitectos, Snohetta’s renovation of the landmarked AT&T building, which includes a redesigned and expanded public garden, as well as 425 Park Avenue by Foster + Partners.
