56 Leonard Street, a 56-storey residential tower in New York designed by architects Herzog & de Meuron, the tower will be built on the corner of Leonard Street and Church Street in Tribeca. A specially commissioned sculpture by Anish Kapoor will sit at the corner of the building at street level. The tower will house 145 residences, each with its own unique floor plan and private outdoor space, in a veritable cascade of individual homes blending indoors and outdoors seamlessly together. With its articulated surfaces, dramatic cantilevers, profiled slab edges, profusion of balconies, expanses of glass, and views from downtown Manhattan to as far as the Atlantic Ocean, Herzog & de Meuron's 56 Leonard Street breaks down the old image of the high-rise as a sleek, hermetically sealed urban object to propose instead a thoughtful, daring and ultimately dazzling new alternative © Tronic / Alexico Group
