PARK PLACE: THE NEXT PARK AVENUE
Forbes does a roundup of the new residential blocks, ie the new Park Avenues, including 71st Street, Charlton Street and our own Park Place: “Though the street spans just three blocks between Greenwich Street and Broadway, near City Hall, it is now home to several new towers. These include Robert A.M. Stern’s 82-story 30 Park Place, developed by Silverstein and branded by the Four Seasons, and The Woolworth Tower Residences, condos designed by French architect Thierry W. Despont in the top 30 floors of the historic skyscraper. ‘The opportunity to create in such an iconic [property] immediately interested us,” Burger said of 30 Park Place, “and [finding] a site to develop in a historically landmarked area is not only rare, but incredibly exciting with new ground-up development.’”

MEMORIAL FOR THOSE WITH 9/11 ILLNESSES
Crains and the Post report that the 9/11 Museum will dedicate an area of the plaza to those affected by illnesses due to 9/11. “The tribute will be located at the Memorial Glade at Liberty and West streets. It will include a path lined with six stone monoliths pointing toward the sky that “are worn, but not beaten, symbolizing strength and determination through adversity,” according to the museum.
