Metropolitan Tower
Commercial — New York
Metropolitan Tower redefines the workplace for a post-pandemic world. The tower's stepped facade creates sky gardens at every level — outdoor spaces that bring natural light and fresh air into the heart of the city.
A structural diagrid reduces material use by 30% while creating column-free floor plates that offer maximum flexibility for future tenants. The lobby, clad in Portuguese limestone and brushed brass, sets a tone of quiet sophistication.
The project achieved LEED Platinum certification, with features including a rainwater harvesting system, photovoltaic panels integrated into the facade, and a smart building management system.
