세계에서 가장 얇은 초고층 빌딩 VIDEO: New York Completes the World's Thinnest Skyscraper

Sales Open Up At One Of The Tallest Buildings In The World, Starting At $18 Million

Amy DobsonSenior Contributor 

Two years ago it very briefly looked like this half-completed building might have hit a few snags, but after overcoming all the major obstacles, work continued at 111 West 57th Street and now it is nearing completion. Sales were announced about a month ago for the building, which includes some of the most expensive condos in New York City. The 7,000-square-foot penthouse has an asking price of $57 million, though prices start at $18 million for a 4,500-square-foot unit. To create a building this tall—which is expected to reach its top this January—developers have to use a crane measuring 220 feet high to get all the way to the building's pinnacle of 1,428 feet, making it one of two dozen of the tallest buildings in the world (and also requiring the tallest freestanding crane used in New York). It will be the thinnest skyscraper in the world with a width to height ratio of about 1:23.

세계에서 가장 얇은 초고층 빌딩     2년 전만 해도 이 반쯤 완성된 건물이 몇 가지 난관에 부딪혔을지 모르지만, 모든 주요 장애물을 극복한 후, 111번지 웨스트 57번가에서 공사가 계속되어 지금은 거의 완성 단계에 있다.  뉴욕시에서 가장 비싼 콘도 일부를 포함한 이 빌딩의 매출은 약 한 달 전에 발표되었다. 630m2의 펜트하우스는 가격이 5천 7백만 달러에 이르지만 405m2의 유닛은 1천 8백만 달러에서 시작한다.  개발자들이 66m 높이의 크레인을 사용하여 1428m의 빌딩 꼭대기까지 가야 하는데, 이것은 세계에서 가장 높은 빌딩 중 하나가 되고 또한 뉴욕에서 사용되는 가장 높은 크레인 또한 필요로 한다. 폭 대 높이 비율이 약 1:23으로 세계에서 가장 얇은 초고층 건물이 될 것이다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Chul Hwang, conpaper editor, curator

Here are some photos of the views from the upper floors, which were provided exclusively to Forbes. From the 73rd floor, residents will be able to look out and see this:

The 64th floor is where it starts to surpass the height of other buildings in the vicinity and residents will be able to see this:

The 46 full-floor and duplex residences sit atop the historic Steinway Hall, which has been reimagined to blend in with a supertall. Steinway Hall is also where the $20.5 million penthouse is, with more than 5,000 interior square feet and about 3,800 square feet of private terraces. Developers JDS Development Group, Property Markets Group and Spruce Capital Partners made sure the exterior facade was not going to be an eyesore for the rest of the neighborhood by relying on terra cotta and bronze to create a classic design. Here's a close-up of the exterior:
