This city is unserious
People used to do things around here. Now they just talk about doing things before NIMBYs shoot them down.
This is a municipal project, which takes a little longer than private projects. In Dresden a bridge collapsed last year, who knows how long this will take until the new bridge is completed (off topic addition).
We will have a new tunnel under the Hudson by then.
But that takes a long time, 3-4 years. I thought we needed living space.
the city agencies that are currently in the building need to be relocated elsewhere first. I would imagine that would contribute to the time delay before any demolition is commenced.
The rendering of 100 Gold Street is much better/more detailed in the original than I photographed it.

Key points of the redevelopment plan include:
- Over 1,000 mixed-income apartments
- A minimum of 25% affordable units in the new development
- A new, purpose-built facility for the Hamilton Madison House Older Adult Center (presently in the basement of 100 Gold Street)
- Improved streetscape, landscaping, public art, and ground-floor retail
The redevelopment process will follow these steps according to the New York City Economic Development Corporation:
- Proposals are due by June 5, 2025
- Developer selection expected by the end of 2025
- Four-year public review process, including land use review (ULURP), starting around 2027
- Agency relocation planned for 2029
- Construction of the new development to begin in 2030
