Renderings of the next phase of Hudson Yards have been made public by Related Companies along with a construction price tag of $12 billion. Hudson Yards West will be built on top of the site’s still-undeveloped western rail yards and cultivate a 5.6-acre park called Hudson Green designed by HOLLANDER and Sasaki.
Related's CEO Jeff T. Blau says it will "be an oasis that becomes the new calling card of the neighborhood."
Once in place, the project will yield a total of 1,500 new apartment units (Related has promised that 324 will be affordable) with an anchoring 80-story Wynn Resorts hotel and casino tower at Eleventh Avenue and 33rd Street. An architect for either of these components has yet to be named.
Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) is responsible for the total 13-acre master plan, which includes another 2-million-square-foot office component and public K-8 school. This update follows the early March release of the initial Phase 2 renderings. As was reported at that time, construction is expected to take approximately 60 months to its projected completion in 2030.
"It's easy for leaders to talk about wanting to create jobs and invest in the economy and infrastructure, but our proposal to develop Hudson Yards West would actually do it, which is why it continues to garner important support from unions, trade organizations and small businesses," Related President Bruce Beal added in a final statement to the press.

At this rate of growth, sometime in the next century the entire United States will be absorbed into Hudson Yards.
To paraphrase Lincoln Steffens, I have seen the future and it stinks.
Maybe then, Stinking Dead Hudson Yards..?
The world of the future!
The rezoning of land in New York City for skyscrapers and a casino puts the experience of the city's High Line "under threat" according to the founders of Friends of the High Line.
Friends of the High Line founders Joshua David and Robert Hammond made a series of criticisms about proposed developments in an opinion piece published in NY Daily News today.
