It not only changes the civic experience of the Central District of New York, but also satisfies the market’s demand for cutting-edge and modern office space through the exquisite expression of different levels of architectural language.
The ceramic plate climbs up the entire skyscraper and presents a sparkling pearl tone.

1 Design Analysis Architectural Design: KPF Firm © Raimund Koch Vanderbilt 1 is the first completed tower under renovation and development in the East Midtown District of New York.
It is part of the spatial sequence of Central Station and also the gateway to New York City, hosting thousands of commuters every day.
As an active material, ceramic tiles vary from batch to batch, which means that the use of this material and the choice of finishes pose certain challenges.
© At the early stage of Byencore’s design, the KPFui team participated in studying different volume schemes to optimize the pedestrian flow lines of the public space inside and around the building.
“At the time of the incident, Vanderbilt Tower 1 was not open to the public, and the observation deck on the top was closed, causing no injuries,” the spokesman said.
Through the comprehensive utilization of underground space, the building is directly connected to Central Station and to the 14000 square foot pedestrian plaza of Vanderbilt Street.
Vanderbilt 1 is directly connected to the subway and regional transportation system.
