**[Extell’s ‘One Manhattan Square’ Project Pegged for Q3 2019 Completion](http://www.boweryboogie.com/2016/05/extells-one-manhattan-square-project-pegged-q3-2019-completion/)**

[http://cdn01.boweryboogie.com/content/uploads/2016/05/extell-may-2016-620x465.jpg](http://cdn01.boweryboogie.com/content/uploads/2016/05/extell-may-2016-620x465.jpg)

> One Manhattan Square, the eighty-story skyscraper (823 feet) on South Street brought to you by Extell Development Corp. is on track for completion in the third quarter of 2019. At a construction rate of approximately one floor every three days, plus the enclosure and fit-out, the project is still more than three years from out. Domestic sales are anticipated to begin in September, as previously reported.

> This was the estimate provided last night during the fifth quarterly meeting with area residents (predominantly from 82 Rutgers Street). Here are some other updates gleaned during the info session (in no particular order):

> **Foundation is complete. Work has begun on the fifth floor of the podium. The superstructure itself begins on the sixth floor.**

> **The tower will be enclosed by the end of 2017.**

> **Construction on the “poor door” affordable tower should commence in the fall.**

> For safety purposes, neighbors are pitching to create a mid-block crossing in the center of Cherry Street. Lots of neighborhood youth cross to attend the area Head Start program, and there are fears about the increased traffic that will result from the wall of glass coming to the waterfront. Susan Stetzer committed to putting this measure on a future Community Board 3 agenda.  
> Extell committed to providing security reflector vests for area children passing through the covered walkway between the project site and 82 Rutgers Street.

> The developers are now more assertive in their position to bring an “affordable” supermarket back to the street. Razy Haas, SVP Project Management and Development for Extell, repeated that claim several times during the hour-long meeting. Haas shot down any hope for a possible “early opening” of the supermarket, though, noting it can’t happen before “early 2019.”

> There are three total retail units.

So I could see this pretty well from the boat ride. It has definitely grown some since the last updates. I however did not get a picture because I was getting a beer when we passed it heading south (we were on right side of boat) and my wife was taking pictures(her phone was dead) and was focused the Brooklyn bridge…

Either way it was pretty noticeable from the east river.
