Tower Fifth is a skyscraper proposed for Midtown Manhattan in New York City. The developer, Macklowe Properties, has completed other projects including the redevelopment of the General Motors Building and construction of 432 Park Avenue.[1] Plans for the structure were first revealed in January 2019,[2] and the developer continued purchasing buildings to create an assemblage in 2019, closing on a building in March 2020,[3] and continuing to eye buildings in June 2020.[4] Demolition permits were first filed in April 2020.[5]
It will be 1,556 feet (474 m) tall.[6] If completed as planned, it will become the fifteenth tallest building in the world[7] and the tallest in New York City by roof height,[6] surpassing the nearby Central Park Tower by about 6 ft (2 meters).
