This is a BIG building, the renderings looks great and there’s a partial facade revamp too, which is badly needed. The building was completed in 1961 btw.

good one
I’d still say like 90% if not more of the facade is still the same though. They’re just changing the windows for operable ones. If one didn’t know, you wouldn’t really even be able to tell anything happened to the building.

No idea, but if you’re asking about the affordable housing lottery application, it should pop up here when it becomes available:
For the market rate apartments, we should get a website once they get closer to finishing

From Real Deal -
Three weeks after structural columns buckled at the former Pfizer Building, New York City building officials issued a stop-work order at another office-to-residential conversion.
Construction work has been halted over at 222 Broadway, where developer GFP Real Estate is in the process of converting the 32-story tower, a former home to Bank of America and WeWork, into a luxury residential building with nearly 800 units, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The shutdown in Lower Manhattan takes place after city inspectors discovered that the project’s contractor, Leeding Builders Group, and the engineering firm, DeSimone Consulting Engineers, failed to report cracks that had developed in two concrete beams on the building’s newly added top floor.
The cracks on the 32nd floor initially appeared in March and were promptly repaired, according to a GFP spokesman. The developer declined to comment to the publication on whether the added weight from the new rooftop features contributed to the beam cracks. The contractor and the engineers decided the damage was minor and did not report it to the city.
A disagreement over when the damage should have been reported, not “safety issues of any kind,” is the only reason for the project’s shutdown, according to GFP. The building is stable, the developer said.
The Department of Buildings is currently reviewing engineering reports for 222 Broadway and will not lift the halt until safety is assured, the agency told WSJ. Despite the delay, GFP expects to complete the project within the next year, with apartment leasing already underway.

I used to know people who worked in the building to the right (330 Madison) and visited them often. I cannot imagine a more surreal or uncomfortable way to live, than living on that block.
