Hearst Tower, New York, United States

Hearst Tower

A diagrid office tower rising above a historic masonry base in Manhattan.

The contrast between the retained Hearst podium and the new tower is the central strategy.

Its steel diagrid anchors discussions of structural and material efficiency.

It is a leading example of the Manhattan High-Tech tower.
