Facade installation is wrapping up on the crown at supertall Midtown residential tower 111 West 57th Street by JDS Development Group, Property Markets Group, and Spruce Capital Partners. Designed by SHoP Architects, the 1,428-foot tower will offer 60 residential condos when it wraps up construction some time in 2020. Installation of the terra-cotta, bronze, and glass curtain wall at the east and west facades is mostly complete. Only the top floors of the metal and glass facade at the north and south portions of the crown remain to be installed.
