Jay Cross, President of Related Hudson Yards said, “The dynamic mixed-use, amenity rich development at Hudson Yards continues to attract leading companies to Manhattan’s West Side.

The state of the art facilities, infrastructure and mixed-use design offered here are unparalleled in New York and Arosa Capital is excited to become a part of this premier development.”

The anticipated LEED Gold, 1.3 million gross-square-foot building was designed by acclaimed global architect A. Eugene Kohn of Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF) and is on schedule to open in 2018. The building is defined by its indoor-outdoor spaces, early modernism-inspired exterior design and exceptionally efficient interior space planning. Positioned at the intersection of Hudson Yards, the High Line and Hudson Park & Boulevard, 55 Hudson Yards is one of the few office buildings in the entire city that opens directly onto a park. It also sits adjacent to a No. 7 Subway station, which connects to nearly every other major subway line, as well as Grand Central Station. Penn Station is also less than a ten-minute walk away. The building will also be home to: Boies, Schiller & Flexner; Cooley LLP; Intercept Pharmaceuticals; MarketAxess; Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP; Point72; Third Point LLC. and Silver Lake.

The unprecedented commercial office leasing effort at Hudson Yards has attracted more than 6.4 million square feet of occupancy by some of the world’s leading businesses. 10 Hudson Yards, home to Coach Inc., L’Oréal USA, The Boston Consulting Group, SAP, VaynerMedia, Intersection and Sidewalk Labs, opened in May of 2016. The Shops and Restaurants at Hudson Yards, which is already over 70% committed; the 5-acre Public Square and Gardens and Vessel; 30 Hudson Yards, home to DNB Bank, Kohlberg, Kravis & Roberts (KKR), Time Warner Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities; will all open in 2019, along with the site’s mixed-use tower, 35 Hudson Yards. 50 Hudson Yards, the future home of BlackRock, will open in 2022.

Hudson Yards is an entirely new neighborhood on Manhattan’s West Side and comprises more than 18 million square feet of mixed-use development. Developed by Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group, it will include more than 100 shops and restaurants, including New York City’s first Neiman Marcus, signature restaurants and diverse eateries; approximately 4,000 residences; 14-acres of public open space; a new 750-seat public school and an Equinox® hotel with more than 200 rooms – all offering unparalleled amenities for residents, employees and guests.
