One Vanderbilt

Rising immediately beside Grand Central Terminal, One Vanderbilt was conceived as a landmark commercial tower that would redefine Midtown Manhattan's skyline while improving connections to the surrounding neighborhood. The 1,401-foot, 58-story development required the integration of approximately 1.7 million SF of commercial space, including offices, retail, an observation deck and hospitality amenities. Its prominent location also called for improvements to the public realm and transit connections at the heart of Manhattan.

G&T provided initial cost estimating services for One Vanderbilt, supporting the early planning of the landmark commercial tower. The estimates were prepared for the proposed development, which included office and retail space, an observation deck and hospitality amenities.

Completed in 2020, One Vanderbilt has become a defining addition to Midtown Manhattan's skyline. The tower combines commercial offices, retail and public observation space with a new public plaza and improved connections to Grand Central Terminal. These improvements extend the development's impact beyond the building itself, creating a more connected arrival point in the heart of Manhattan.
