Monday LEEDoff: MTA Selects Related Companies to Develop Hudson Yards
Tishman Speyer’s loss is now the Related Companies’ gain. The MTA announced today that it has selected Related and Goldman Sachs to develop Hudson Yards into a $1 billion mixed-use neighborhood that will revolve around a central nine-acre grand plaza similar in concept to Tishman’s proposed “New York Steps.” Related will seek LEED Gold for the project (pursuant to the MTA’s RFP), though no specific details are available regarding whether that rating will be for individual towers or a broader LEED-ND application for the entire project.

MTA Selects Tishman Speyer’s LEED Gold Bid for Hudson Yards
On Wednesday, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority chose Tishman Speyer to develop the Hudson Yards site on the far West Side of Manhattan. Tishman’s $1 billion bid for a 99-year ground lease from the MTA was $39 million more than a joint venture proposal from the Durst Organization and Vornado. As you may recall, the MTA opened bidding back in October for the right to build at the 26-acre site, which spans from 30th to 33rd Streets and between 10th Avenue and the Hudson River. Designed by Helmut Jahn, Cooper Robertson, and landscape architect Peter Walker, Tishman’s scheme contemplates 8.1 million square feet of office space across 5 towers, 3,230 rental and condominium units, cultural and community space, 379 affordable housing units, and the promise of a LEED Gold rating for the development.
