The biggest real estate development in American history is getting a $150 million M.C. Escher-like stairwell
On Manhattan's Far West Side, a $25 billion neighborhood called Hudson Yards is set to be the biggest real estate development in American history. The project's developers expect full build-out by 2024.
Beyond its new residential skyscrapers, gardens, restaurants, shops, and offices, Hudson Yards will also feature a public landmark that appears to be inspired by M.C. Escher.
Called the Vessel, the $150 million structure includes 15 stories of intertwining staircases that visitors will climb. The project topped out on Wednesday morning.
